Production of Construction Materials

The construction materials and structures industry is represented by a broad range of manufacturers that can fully satisfy the national construction industry’s demand for all construction materials.

The enterprises that make construction materials and manufacturing divisions of civil engineering enterprises were radically modernized in the last few years by leveraging cutting-edge foreign manufacturing technologies and can now make competitive products.

For instance, OAO Gomelglass now makes energy-saving, sun-protective, and multifunctional glass. OAO Keramin and OAO Beryozastroymaterialy now make new kinds of ceramic tiles with improved physical and mechanical parameters. OAO Keramin has launched a brand-new technology of making large-format sanitary and ceramic products. OAO Belmedsteklo has set up up facilities to make medical glass. OAO Grodnoglass has launched the production of glass containers using innovative and energy efficient technologies.

Belarusian enterprises also implement investment projects to promote import substitution and energy saving, and expand their production range.

Modernization has allowed replacing imported construction materials and structures with domestic ones.

At present the key priorities of the construction materials industry include efforts to ensure the industry operates at full capacity and to make their products more competitive on the markets.
