Spain's cement consumption jumps 53pc in March as construction recovers

Cement consumption rose to 1.41 million tons in March, recovering from a slump last year and moving 9.3% above the level recording in March 2019, the Oficemen data showed.
As building projects resumed in the summer of 2020, when the lockdown ended, Oficemen expects annual consumption in 2021 to remain stable from 2020.
