"It is the best outcome since 2009, and growth is expected to continue
this year," Kaspars Pacevics,
manager of Sakret, said commenting on
statistics of the European cement industry body Cembureau.
In 2015, cement consumption in Estonia totaled 292 kilograms, in Finland
290 kilograms, in Lithuania 249 kilograms and in Latvia 188 kilograms per
resident. By way of comparison, 490 kilograms of cement per resident was
consumed in Estonia and 387 kilograms in Finland in 2007, the peak year of the
boom of the mid-2000s.
Pacevics said that growth in construction material sales, including in the
sales of cement, provide a clear indication of positive outlooks of the
construction sector. Sakret too has boosted output significantly this year.
