Our integrated business model

Main environmental factors 2023

  • The recovery of the world economy remains slow and uneven with growing divergences between regions in a complex and uncertain global environment.
  • Inflation has continued at high levels, albeit declining faster than expected in most regions. To mitigate inflation, monetary authorities raised interest rates to record levels.
  • Supply chain disruptions and the correction of energy and raw material prices.
  • The economic slowdown was also combined with the socio-political situation in some of the regions where we operate.

Despite the increasingly difficult international environment, the year’s results demonstrate the strength of our business model, which integrates products and solutions for the construction industry.
