Australia: Boral has announced a planned three-week shutdown of the kiln at its 1.5Mt/yr integrated Berrima plant in New South Wales. The Financial Review newspaper has reported that Boral chief executive officer (CEO) Mike Kane said, ‘Revenues are down by 6% year-on-year in Australia in the first four months of 2020.’ He added that Australian cement volumes in the same period fell by 16% year-on-year and that there are fewer new orders than at the same stage of 2019 as a result of the coronavirus outbreak.
