Several Production Lines Put into Production in One Year, the Country's Cement Production Capacity Blowout

Uzbek President Mirziyoyev recently chaired a meeting on priorities for the further development of the building materials industry,

according to Uzbekistan's "Detailed" News Network.

In recent years, the scale of constructive projects in Uzbekistan has been expanding, and a large number of new houses, large industrial enterprises, cultural and sports institutions, roads and bridges have been built.

In the past two years, the volume of construction has increased 1.7 times, mainly using domestic building materials, while importing ceramics, particleboard, glass, wallpaper and other materials. At the same time, however, Ukraine has great potential to increase the production of modern building materials and imported substitutes.

"Now, with the increasing amount of constructive work, the building materials industry should become the leading industry and one of the economic growth points.". By introducing energy-saving technology in enterprises, we can save natural resources and reduce material costs. Mirziyoyev said.

Mirziyoyev identified the urgent task of at least doubling the output of building materials in the next five years. To achieve this, the development of non-metallic deposits should be expanded, the industrial processing of materials should be established, and the industry as a whole should be diversified.

Mirziyoyev paid special attention to stabilizing the supply of energy enterprises at reasonable prices, and instructed the introduction of energy-saving technologies in the building materials industry to reduce production costs.

Using the example of a brick factory that uses coal as fuel, the president pointed out that the cost of production could be reduced to 50%. The use of this modern technology in industrial enterprises will save natural gas and reduce the cost of products. This is good for entrepreneurs, people and countries.

"The domestic building materials industry has broad export potential.". But high transportation costs have affected commodity prices. In this regard, it is proposed to subsidize the transportation costs of export products. According to the press Bureau of the head of state of Ukraine.

In 2019, four cement plants with an annual capacity of 2 million tons have been put into operation in Karakalpakstan, Surkhan-Darya, Andijan and Navoi.

By the end of the year, several new cement plants with an annual capacity of 3.5 million tons will be put into operation. The total potential for cement production will increase to 15 million tons. This will help meet domestic cement demand and reduce cement prices . Between

2019 and 2020, Ukraine plans to implement more than 1000 projects worth more than 17 trillion sum in the building materials industry. The participants explained the allocation of commercial bank loans and the active attraction of foreign investment.

In addition, the further development of the building materials industry also requires high-level experts. However, the quota for university-related majors is not in line with the growing demand for personnel. Lack of connection between learning process and practice.

The meeting pointed out that it is necessary to increase the number of public-funded students in professional fields, comprehensively revise the procedures for organizing practical training in enterprises, and cooperate with foreign companies to organize new technical and vocational skills training centers.
