The enterprises of the warehouses have over 10.3 million tons of masonry materials (cement and artificial blocks and bricks.) This is approximately by nine times greater, than was produced in January. The gypsum manufacturing decreased by (-22.6%), lime – by (-31%), bricks – by (-28.8%), a concrete solution by (-52.9%).
