The demand for domestic building materials and structures
The Russian construction market is going through difficult times. The influence of the crisis has become a significant barrier and negatively affected the implementation of many projects. A high and unjustified increase in prices in the building materials market in the pre -crisis years adversely influenced the situation. Although you can observe the positive aspects that leave the hope that the optimal ratio will be achieved between demand and demand in the construction market. The most severe damage crisis was caused by capital construction.
For example, in St. Petersburg, housing buildings decreased by a third and continue to contract. At the moment, only 20% of construction projects are implementing themselves, but this does not guarantee the completion of construction on time. Prices for building materials during the peak of the crisis were reduced, but not at a speed not justified to rise to a difficult situation. The decline in the field of capital construction interferes to normalize the prices for building materials. In the segment of facade systems, the situation on the contrary improved, domestic manufacturers were able to offer the price of 30-50% compared to similar systems of foreign manufacturers (Belgium, Germany).
