Import
Trends
•
•
Historically clinker imports increased as local
kilns closed and excess Asian clinker export
capacity emerged
Recent FOB clinker prices trending up due to
Chinese regulations reducing export capacity
Bulk freight increasing from recent lows
Import
Capability
An alternative to importing bulk cement is
importing clinker which Boral favours
⚫ Clinker importation allows better quality
management and product flexibility
Capability and scale is critical to access
deeper clinker markets and lower costs
•
Boral has developed deep supply chain
capability importing ~1mtpa of clinker
