Spain: Cement demand in the northern Spanish region of Catalonia went down by 15.1% year-on-year to 108,191t in April 2014, according to the regional cement association Ciment Catala. Exports of cement and clinker from the region grew by 44% to 223,219t in April 2014, over twice the volume of regional consumption. The decline in sales of cement in Catalonia was attributed to the lower amount of civil works.
