6. 6 World Cement Consumption Source: U.S.G.S., U.S. Census Bureau, International Cement Review, Statistics Canada.

7. 7 World Cement Consumption Source: US Geological Survey

8. 8 2009 Scenario-Lower cement consumption across the globe

9. 9 2009 Scenario – Major Export & Import Regions

10. 10 Major Trends in International Cement 2009  China is slowing down more than expected – Exportable surplus acc. To BNP is 60 Million tons  Global market has become a “Buyers’ market” again, after four years  FOB prices are declining around the world  More cement will hit mature markets with low freight costs and overcapacity  Africa and NAM will be threatened by low-cost cement imports  Surplus management will become a major issue
