| German cement maker outperforms results forecast for 2006  Germany-based construction materials giant HeidelbergCement assumes that all result figures of the company for 2006 will be better than the latest forecast due to the extraordinary good weather conditions at year-end. In 2006, HeidelbergCement's cement and clinker sales volumes rose to around 80 million tonnes (previous year: 68). Due to this favourable development of sales volumes, turnover is expected to exceed EUR 9 billion (previous year: 7.8) and the profit for the financial year will increase to about EUR 1 billion (previous year: EUR 471 million).write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
