Study Overview

The cement market encompasses the production, distribution and sale of this construction material. Cement is used in different segments such as residential construction, non-residential construction and various infrastructures. There are several types of cement, such as

Portland cement: clinker (a mixture of clay and limestone that has been heated) ground into a fine powder that is mixed with gypsum and other additives. Aluminous cement: made from materials containing alumina and resistant to acids and sulfates, ideal for industrial applications. Fast-setting cement: water-based and fast-setting, ideal for emergency repairs.

Worldwide, the cement market is largely dominated by Asia, which accounts for over 60% of total consumption. In addition, emerging countries such as India and China are the main drivers of global demand due to their growing infrastructure and urban housing construction. The CAGR for the cement market is around 5%. By way of comparison, around 150,000 kilograms of cement areprocessed every second worldwide. In Germany, the cement market is mature and well-established, with annual production of around 30 million tonnes. However, demand for cement in Germany is strongly influenced by public infrastructure projects and housing construction. The German cement industry is also characterized by high environmental standards and, in particular, by a growing demand for more environmentally-friendly types of cement. Typical customers in the German cement market are construction companies, property developers and public institutions. Several companies are active in this market, the main ones being :
