Will Cement Demand Keep Pace with Economic Recovery?

Can the Industry Survive the Over-Supply Market?

Asia is recording economic recovery with the implementation of the government stimulus programs from China to Vietnam. Can the cement industry bounce back faster than expected?

China & India paves the way for Asia's cement sector turnaround and pockets of growth is expected in countries like Vietnam, Sri Lanka & Indonesia. But will Asia start feeling the heat of oversupply and tip the balance?

"India's cement industry is likely to record an annual growth of 10% in the coming years.... However, as new capacities become operational, supply may outstrip demand, putting downward pressure on margins."
Oct 2009, World Cement

"Lafarge and Holcim have both sought to establish themselves in China, which now accounts for half of global cement demand, and other emerging economies in an effort to eke out opportunities beyond the mature, heavily consolidated markets of Europe and North America."
Dec 2009, Cementchina.net
