CEMEX aims to lead in sustainable construction by developing building products and solutions that have significant positive sustainability attributes and contribute to the transformation of the construction sector.
Concrete is humanity’s primary building material. It literally provides the foundation, structural support, floors, and walls for much of the infrastructure of modern civilization: from homes, offices, and factories to bridges and runways, dams, and power plants. That infrastructure must and will continue to grow.
By 2050, world population is expected to increase from today’s 6.9 billion to more than 9 billion. Also by 2050, some 70 percent of earth’s population will live in cities, up from 47 percent in 2000. Concrete will be fundamental to providing this burgeoning urban population with housing, energy, transportation, and the many other necessities and enjoyments of life.
At current growth rates, CEMEX forecasts that by 2050, global annual concrete consumption will be at least double the estimated 7.5 billion cubic meters produced in 2006.
