Saudi Arabia's Northern Region Cement Co has reported 'robust' 3Q19 financial results, according to General Manager, Obeid bin Saad Al-Subaie.
"The Kingdom did not witness an improved cement demand, yet, the prices' increase helped the cement producers adjust their status," stated Mr Al-Subaie.
He also added that the company has abundant stockpiles of white cement.
