Cement sales in Brazil totaled 5.7 million tonnes in May 2026, down 1.0 % from the same month a year earlier, according to the National Cement Industry Union (SNIC).

The Brazilian cement company Votorantim Cimentos is implementing an investment program of 5 billion BRL (Brazilian real), which provides for an increase in production capacity in the country by 3.7 million tons per year.

Votorantim commissioned a new 1.0 Mta grinding mill at its Edealina cement plant in Goiás in Brazil.

Consolidated net revenue for the quarter was 8.7 billion BRL (Brazilian real), up 15 % compared to 3Q24.

Cement sales in August fell to 6.0 million tons, a 2.5% decrease compared to the same month in 2024.

Votorantim Cimentos ended the second quarter of 2025 with growth in net revenue, profit and operating results, driven by higher sales volumes and positive pricing dynamics, supported by geographic and product diversification.

In the first half of 2025, Brazilian cement sales reached 32 million tons, an increase of 3.5 % over the same period last year.
