The cement industry in the United States produced 82.8 million tonnes (81,500,000 long tons; 91,300,000 short tons) of cement in 2015, worth US$9.8 billion, and was used to manufacture concrete worth about US$50 billion. The US was the world's third-largest producer of cement, after China and India.
In 2010, the world production of hydraulic cement was 3,300 megatonnes (3,600 × 10 ^ 6 short tons). The top three producers were China with 1,800, India with 220, and the United States with 63.5 million tonnes for a total of over half the world total by the world's three most populated states. [56]

Cement plants normally have sufficient silo space for one to 20 weeks of production, depending upon local demand cycles. The cement is delivered to end users either in bags, or as bulk powder blown from a pressure vehicle into the customer's silo. In industrial countries, 80% or more of cement is delivered in bulk.
While Colombia is where Argos produces the most cement, the United States is where Argos has its largest concrete production capacity (8.9 million cubic meters per year). There are 134 concrete production plants and 1,350 mixers. Argos' concrete production capacity in Colombia is only 1.7 million cubic meters per year, with 40 plants and 230 ...
