South African cement industry at rock bottom

Durban - The cement and construction industry has almost halved in capacity since last year and stakeholders believe a boon in projects similar to those leading up to the 2010 Fifa World Cup was necessary to resurge the sector.

Selvan Moodley, the managing director of a Chatsworth construction company, said during levels 5 and 4 he had no income. But Moodley said should government impose stringent regulations to combat the infection peak similar to levels 5 and 4 he would not survive. “There is a very small piece of cake that everyone is fighting for, the demand is less than the supply. Most of our cement goes to retailers and then local builders, but we still cater to larger companies when bulk deals are required,” he said.“The sector has had issues for a while and government needs to support us through infrastructure maintenance and other projects. We were in survival mode and Covid-19 almost served as the final nail in the coffin.
