Concrete volumes expected to remain
high but Macromonitor is forecasting
concrete industry volumes to reduce by
~4% nationally and -7% in NSW in
FY2020 as residential activity slows
(Macromonitor is forecasting ~180k
housing starts in FY2020)
Concrete volume movements will
depend on rate of new infrastructure
projects coming through and shape of
residential cycle
