U.S. Cement Plants Bring Billions in Project Spending
March 27, 2024--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Cement is one of the most used materials in the world, in everything from small-scale construction to large infrastructure projects. According to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the U.S. produced 91 million tons of portland and masonry cement last year. While this is down slightly from 2022 levels, the numbers are still indicative of a rising trend in domestic production over the past few years. Industrial Info is tracking more than $4.5 billion of active projects at cement plants in the U.S. Many of the projects targeting increased production remain in the planning or engineering stage, while much of the project activity presently underway at U.S. plants involves environmental, social and governance (ESG)-related projects.
