世界第三大水泥生产商，墨西哥的CEMEX公司于近日宣布，为适应较高的原材料成本，将上调其在墨西哥的袋装水泥价格至138比索每吨（约合9.5美元 ）。
CEMEX经营范围覆盖全球50多个国家和地区，墨西哥是CEMEX公司最大的市场之一。CEMEX于今年2月1日正式在墨西哥地区提高水泥价格。
针对于此，CEMEX向路透社透露，提价原因主要因为“生产水泥的主要原材料的成本增长速度高于市场价格”。
坐落在蒙特雷的CEMEX宣布，它的散装水泥价格每吨提高了92比索，但拒绝透露增加的百分比或任何进一步的细节。
记者咨询经销商了解到，此次提价当于增加了7%。在提价以前，一包水泥的价格大约是2100比索。
Cemex在墨西哥是占主导地位的水泥生产商，由于在美国和欧洲市场销售低迷，加上全球金融危机引起的信贷紧缩，使其目前挣扎于一个大的债务阴影之中。

Cemex hikes Mexican cement prices
Mexico's Cemex, the world's third largest cement producer, said on Tuesday it had increased its domestic bagged cement prices by 138 pesos ($9.5) a tonne, citing higher raw material costs.
Cemex (CX.N) (CMXCPO.MX), which operates in more than 50 countries, said the price increases took effect on Feb. 1 in Mexico, one of its biggest markets.
"The cost of the main raw materials to produce cement have grown at a faster rate than the market price," Cemex said in an email to Reuters.
Monterrey-based Cemex said it hiked bulk cement prices by 92 pesos a tonne, although it declined to give the increase as a percentage or any further details.
Cement distributors consulted by Reuters said the hikes amounted to a 7 percent increase. Before the price increases, a bag of cement was around 2,100 pesos.
Cemex, the dominant cement maker in Mexico, is struggling with a large debt load, slumping sales in its U.S. and European markets and tight credit amid the global financial crisis.
