Although world demand is less than one per cent of per capita grey
cement consumption, white cement is a key niche market. Sales are

Introduction

Executive summary
The global white cement industry is a small segment of the overall cementitious sector. With
estimated output in 2002 of around 12Mt it represents by volume less than one per cent of
the worldwide grey cement sector. Nevertheless, for the cement/concrete participants in the
construction materials sector, white cement represents one of the most effective visible means
of promoting their product in applications against competing materials. While considered
purely a niche market by many, for the companies involved in white cement manufacture, its
importance can range from being the sole or major business activity of that company (eg
Federal White Cement of Canada) through to being merely an interesting adjunct to
mainstream activities (Lafarge is a top-5 player in white cement, but this activity is estimated
to represent directly less than one per cent of its total turnover).

Marketing
I White cement is used in many external and visual
applications of concrete and mortars, etc the
challenge is for the industry to increase usage in a
range of current and new applications.
I Improved promotion of white cement is underway,
with Aalborg White and Holcim White two of the
noticeable companies. More needs to be done
particularly in currently low/medium consuming
countries and other countries where there is not a
local producer. Global industry initiatives whilst
desirable are probably not practical.

In all regions, the growing presence

White cement in
Colombia
Cementos del Nare SA is part of the Argos
Group, one of the most important
economic groups in Colombia. During the
last six decades it has been leading the production of white cement and lime in the
country. Cementos del Nare offers several types of white cement such as Type I, Type
IM, Type III, Masonry, Antique, and Colour Cements, all of them with high resistance
and high colour levels of world standards.
In the case of its white cement, the installed
production capacity is 250,000tpa, a quantity
that satisfies the domestic demands as well as
foreign markets, exporting to more than 20
countries.
The company is certified in its production
process under Norm ISO 9001 version 2000 in
the elaboration of white cement and lime. Assessments have been made to guarantee
high standards of resistance and colour consistency of Nare white cement, which abide
to regulations NTC 1362 and ASTM C - 150, depending on the application and the
target market.
The main objective of Cementos del Nare is to promote new
uses of white cement in Colombia:
n white and clear tones of concrete
n precast columns, bracket balusters, sills, wells, large tables,
bar counters, coloured concrete tiles, items for urban
furnishings and practically any construction item
n precast elements in white cement for floors (tiled terraces,
coloured, cobblestones, floor slabs, precast siding panels,
concrete blocks, side plating with slabs)
n mortars and coverings
n white cement based paints
n thin set and grouts
Cementos del Nares white cement has been the protagonist in
great architectural and infrastructure works (see photographs).
Its history and social presence are the best proof that, with
work and hope, the company actively takes part of Colombia's
progress. Quality is a contribution to the construction of a
better future.

World consumption
Consumption of white cement in 2002 is estimated to be 12Mt, according to the criteria used
in this report. Global consumption excluding China is assessed at 9.4Mt. This represents an
average worldwide per capita consumption of 1.9kg, less than one per cent of world per
capita grey cement consumption. Europe is the key white cement consuming region,
responsible for over a quarter of all white cement sales. It is closely followed by China, where
22 per cent of global white cement demand originates (see also Table 15 Estimated white
cement consumption by region, 2002). In the report that follows a snapshot is given of the
white cement industry, compiled from a variety of sources and estimates, as there are no
publicly available statistics measuring demand for white cement. One of the leading white
cement producers has referred since 2001 to global growth in the white cement industry of
four to six per cent annually.

Central Europe
In Central Europe, where total white cement
consumption is estimated to be 250,000t at an
average per capita usage of 2kg annually, scope for
future growth is clear. With the general outlook for
construction in this region reasonably positive,
effective promotion of white cement may lead to

Trading
It is estimated that in excess of 3Mt of white cement was traded outside of the country where
it was produced in 2002. This would represent over 25 per cent of global white cement being
traded. Taking China out of the equation, this figure would be around 32 per cent. As a
comparison, grey cement traded globally is around seven per cent of the overall market,
according to recent ICR research.

PROFILE
US import market
US Customs defines about three dozen ports of entry to America, including Puerto
Rico and the US Virgin Islands, but only a few receive substantial amounts of white
cement. Laredo in Texas was the largest port of entry for white cement in 2001,
followed by Detroit, Miami, Boston, Tampa, and Buffalo NY. Certain countries favour
certain ports when it comes to white cement trade. For example, Canada and Mexico
ship mainly through ports on their US borders. Countries that do not border America,
however, dont show a particular pattern in port selection, though they all tend to
concentrate on only a few ports of entry.

In addition, other sources of white cement in this period included: Colombia (10,637t),
Greece (6058t), Egypt (5500t), Belgium (4585t) and China (3603t).
Over 50 per cent of these imports can be ascribed to Cemex and Aalborg joint
venture partners in Lehigh White, and a further 25 per cent to Federal of Canada.
