Switzerland: Cement deliveries in Switzerland decreased by 8% year-on-year in the second quarter of 2024, reaching 965,200t. Over the first half of 2024, a decline of 8% to 1.8Mt was also reported. Industry organisation Cemsuisse attributes the drop to economic uncertainties, supply chain disruptions and high energy prices. Although civil engineering projects may stabilise the market, a quick recovery in residential construction is not anticipated, according to a press release given by Cemsuisse on 9 July 2024.
