The article discusses challenges faced by Europe's cement industry due to increasing imports of cheaper, higher-emission cement and declining exports. Marcel Cobuz, representing TITAN Group, highlights the potential existential threat to the industry without a coherent long-term strategy from policymakers. He emphasizes the importance of the sector for Europe's economic and strategic autonomy, particularly in construction and critical infrastructure. Cobuz notes the growing need for low-carbon 'Made in Europe' products and the role of both large multinational firms and smaller, family-controlled businesses in maintaining industrial resilience.
