Ceylon Institute of Builders
Ceylon Institute of Builders (CIOB) was established in 1961 by a most illustrious group of engineers and builders of Sri Lanka. It was a very active organization which contributed cohesive systems to the construction industry. We have revived CIOB with the same objectives and adding a few more to address the problems faced by the building industry today. We love and take pride in our stunning work and would like to hear about your next project!
BY being the pivotal Organization for building profession it would promote Training and Research for builders by establishing a Library, and Training and Research Centers.
