Switzerland: Data from the Swiss Cement Industry Association (Cemsuisse) report that cement shipments fell by 2.8% year-on-year to 4.3Mt in 2017. In 2016 shipments rose by 4.2% to 4.4Mt, according to the Swiss Telegraphic Agency. An initial drop in shipments in the first half of 2017 was partly absorbed by better trading subsequently. However, the fourth quarter of 2017 saw falling sales volumes. Rail shipments increased considerably, by 53%, during 2017.
