Quote:
"The first quarter had fine weather conditions for house building, and we saw some degree of forward buying due to product allocation in the UK and announced price increases in mainland Europe," says Michael T Andersen, CEO. "Input costs are expected to increase for the rest of the year due to the general shortage of certain raw materials such as pulverised fuel ash (PFA).”
