Jordan cement demand at 4Mta in 2015

Jordan’s consumption of cement declined to 4Mt in 2015, down by 300,000t from a year earlier due to weaker construction activities and government projects, the head of the Future Society for Cement Traders, Mohammed Ghazi Abu Soufa, said.

He added that  production capacity of cement plants reached 10Mt. Only a small surplus is exported due to closing borders with Syria and Iraq. (Source: Mubasher Info)
