Algeria to Use Locally Sourced Construction Materials for 1.4 Million Housing Units
The Algerian Minister of Housing, Mohamed Tarek Belaribi, announced on Thursday, December 19, that the country will exclusively use locally manufactured construction materials for all projects nationwide.
The first phase of this initiative involves the construction of 1.4 million housing units, which will rely solely on Algerian-made construction materials.
This move is part of a national strategy aimed at reducing imports and promoting the domestic industry. Algeria has announced an annual cement production capacity of 40 million tons.
