What Makes a Home is not Binani Cement But Love and Care.
A home is not made of cement and bricks only Binani cement can make a lasting building, but not a home. To make a house a home we need people living there who are bonded with love and care. It may not always be a perfect place. One may find things piled up here and there. But it is at home we begin our morning and share most precious moments with our loved ones. It is filled with tender touches and smells. It is here we share not only joys but sorrows. When we fall sick we are cared for in home by our dear and near ones. Home is always a sweet place to love and live.
