Earlier Report Observations
The Czech Portland cement market saw considerable variation in its physical volume between 2018 and 2024. Consumption measured in thousand tonnes initially fell in 2019 but then expanded strongly over the next two years, reaching a high of 4.9 million tonnes in 2021.
Market volume then entered a downward phase, declining in 2022 and contracting sharply in 2023 before a partial recovery in 2024. In contrast, the market's value in million US dollars demonstrated consistent annual growth from 2020 onwards, rising even during years of falling consumption.
This divergence between stable value growth and volatile physical turnover points to significant price increases or a shift in the product mix within the market over the observed period.
