Lack of visibility
The National Union of Quarry and Construction Materials Industries (Unicem) indicates that, after an initial decline in the second quarter, activity continues to deteriorate in the third quarter and records a decline as much in aggregates (-1.3 %) than on ready-mixed concrete (-0.9%). Over the first nine months of the year, the decline was 2% for the entire materials activity. Only tiles and bricks manage to show slight increases in activity.
The general outlook is deteriorating and recruitment difficulties and rising costs are the main sources of concern. Furthermore, Unicem highlights the difficulties in implementing the projects. Production of materials could decline this year by 3% for ready-mixed concrete (BPE) and 4% for aggregates.
