Concrete is one of the most popular building materials in Hungary. The Hungarian construction industry is relatively concentrated and expected to grow steadily. In 2006 the country's total construction output declined 1.6 percent, compared with growth of 16.6 percent in 2005, driven primarily by lower public infrastructure construction.
The company aims to optimize its aggregates operation and to maintain its leadership position in the concrete and paving-stone business segments.
