The retro detail that many people added to the bathroom to make the house charming is now being questioned by designers because it multiplies grout, darkens over time, and turns cleaning into double the work.
The meeting also served to provide new perspectives on the hydrographic future of Rio Grande do Sul and was attended by ACI executives, entrepreneurs, representatives from business entities, Senator Luiz Carlos Heinze, a pre-candidate for governor of the state for the PP, and State Deputy Issur Koch.
Thus, the president of ACI, Diogo Leuck, commented on the importance of Port Meridional for the region and emphasized: “The construction of the port is essential to stem the flow of exports from Rio Grande do Sul through Santa Catarina and the loss of taxes and labor.” This is because, although the southern state has great relevance in the production of various export products, there is still a need for a new cargo handling route. Thus, the port of Arroio do Sal will be the central point of the region for the export of these products.
The Construction Project For Port Meridional Involves Investments Of R$ 6 Billion And DTA Engineering Is Accelerating The Process For The Arrival Of The Ships
In addition to commenting on the forecast for the start of cargo handling operations at Port Meridional, with the arrival of the first ships in 2024, the president of DTA Engineering reinforced some details about the venture.
Thus, the construction of the port in Arroio do Sal involves a total investment of R$ 6 billion and will bring a new direction for Rio Grande do Sul, as the port will have the capacity to handle 53 million tons per year, nearly double that of Port of Rio Grande.
The construction project for Port Meridional also includes ten berths for docking large ships, eight for containers, bulk solids, liquids, and gas, and two for cruise ships. Thus, in addition to the shipment of products and the movement of cargo at the port, the complex will serve as a booster for the tourism market in the state of Rio Grande do Sul after its completion in the coming years.
Moreover, the privileged location of Port Meridional in Arroio do Sal will allow for greater connection with companies in the northern part of the state, the mountains, and the Vale do Sinos, thus reducing the logistical cost of various products from Rio Grande do Sul, such as footwear, buses, wood, and cellulose, among others.
