Production of Cement and Steel to Decline amid the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected a wide range of industries, such as hygiene, medical, automotive, and construction. Italy and China have shut their industries temporarily to prevent transmission of the coronavirus. Hence, products such as, steel and cement are showcasing a huge decline in terms of production, which, in turn, is set to obstruct the demand for styrene block copolymers. Contractors using Chinese-made materials may face challenges, namely, delayed execution of projects and higher cost of products because of lockdown measures. We are providing detailed reports to help you come out of this grave situation smoothly.
