Addressing an event marking the signing of an agreement between the Technology Development Board (TDB) and Visakhapatnam-based Industry partner “Ramuka Global Eco Work Private Limited” for commercial production of ECOFIX, a ready-to-use pothole repair mix, the Minister said workshops were now being organised to familiarise state agencies with the technology .
