Amid the pandemic triggered by the SARS-COV2 virus, the first half of 2021 can be compared to the same period of 2020, as demand for construction materials was almost unchanged. The market for reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete, electric poles, highway elements, prefabricated parts for hypermarkets or supermarkets, beams for road bridges is still affected by the lack of large projects for national infrastructure, lack of financing and financial blockages in the national investment field, as well as a sufficiently skilled workforce, the report says.

The increase in revenue is mainly because of the optimization of the production process, as well as of the applied commercial strategies.
