The global white cement market is forecast to grow by 2.8 per cent CAGR by 2022 on the back of rising construction activity in emerging economies, according to Radiant Insights.

In addition, more flexibility in government standards in developed countries is also expected to lead to additional use of white cement in the construction of commercial spaces. Planned projects in North America and Europe are also expected to require white cement while in the Middle East and African markets will benefit from the presence of raw materials and cement plants.
