Asian Concrete Federation (ACF)
Korea, Japan, and India were the three key countries who launched the ACF eleven years ago. Thanks to the contribution of all ACF members, ACF will be one of the three major International Concrete Federation in the world.

1. History of ACF □ Asia in the world
The Increasing Importance of Asia - 32% of Land mass of the World is Asia - 61% of World Population lives in Asia - 33% of World Gross Production (2015) -> 39% (2017) - 40% of World Construction (2015) -> 43% (2020) 39% Economy 33% Before the Introduction of the ACF, we’d rather briefly review the Increasing Importance of the Asia. 32% of Land Mass of the World is Asia. 61% of World Population lives in Asia. Asian Economic Growth for the last 40 years, is even more dramatic, 33% of World Gross Production in 2015 will be increased to 39% in 2020 which shows the growth of the Asian economic power. Naturally, very active construction is going on in Asia. 40% of the World Construction in 2015 will also be increased to 43% in 2020. Asia 60.8 % Population 03 / 32
