Statistics and information on the worldwide supply of, demand for, and material flow of cement.

Portland, blended, and masonry cement (cement) are construction materials that, when mixed with water, serve as the binder in concrete and most mortars. Cements are made from a material called clinker, which is finely ground into a powder and mixed with a small amount of gypsum and, increasingly, supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). Clinker is produced from a precise combination of calcareous, aluminous, ferrous, and siliceous materials, which are transformed through pyroprocessing of the requisite materials in a rotary kiln.
