Mubasher: Jordan’s consumption of cement declined to 4 million tonnes in 2015 , down by 300,000 tonnes 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 the annual production capacity of cement plants reaches 10 million tonnes, while domestic demand reaches 5 million tonnes. Only a small surplus is exported due to closing borders with Syria and Iraq.
