US being the world's largest economy and one of the most dynamic construction markets provided a solid platform to its cement industry to expand during the last two decades. However, last few years have been depressing for the industry, when sluggish cement demand from housing construction dented the supply-demand matrix of the cement industry. The economy is recuperating from recession and the real GDP grew by 2.6% in 2010 after declining to 2.5% in 2009. The recovering economy along with balancing cement prices will kick start cement market recovery in near future and will help it to accelerate further in the coming years.
According to our report "US Cement Industry Analysis", the cement industry in the US is currently in its recovery phase and striving hard to dimnish the after effects of the economic slowdown. New housing starts and commercial construction activities are now picking pace and showing hopes to cement demand retrievals. The study acknowledged the futute market potentials of the industry and found that recouperating infrastructure spending along with growing domestic demand from almost all the prominent industry verticals will enable the apparent cement consumption to grow at a CAGR of around 8.5% during 2011-2015.
Further, at the regional front, West South Central (including mainly Louisiana, Oklahoma, Northern & Southern Texas) and South Atlantic (with states including Delaware, Washington DC, Florida, Georgia) are leading the country in terms of cement production as well as consumption. Moreover, sufficient raw material availability along with various incentives provided by state governments makes both region a highly investment prone area. Numerous domestic as well as international cement companies are striving hard to establish their production base in this region.
"US Cement Industry Analysis" has been authored to evaluate the cement industry's future potentials in the US. It thoroughly examines all prominent emerging trends and drivers, which are fueling growth to the industry's development. Besides highlighting major segments, such as production, consumption, and installed capacity, the report facilitates information on regional cement demand-supply scenario. It will help clients in understanding the market dynamics and get an insight of the industry at the micro level. The report also provides current and projected market trends of cement demand in various industry verticals including RMC, Construction contractors, Concrete products, and other markets, which will help clients in taking informative investment decision.
Most importantly, the report also presents industry forecast based on the correlation of past drivers, challenges, and opportunities for expansion. In this way, the report presents a complete and coherent analysis of the US cement industry, which will prove decisive for the clients.
