Hanoi has established a plan to increase production in its building material industry by 2020.
Under the plan, the industry will grow by five times between now and2015 and six times by 2020, accounting for 6 percent of the capital'stotal industries and providing jobs for 12,000 labourers.

Inaddition, non-burnt brick production units will be constructed in aneffort to boost brick production by 40 percent for an annual capacity ofmore than 3 million bricks by 2015.
Safer and more efficientmaterials such as composite and insulating materials that do not containasbestos will be used to develop 26.7 million square metres of ceramicand decorative tiles per year.
The plan also targets investmentin modern stone processing technologies and the use of recycledmaterials to reduce environmental pollution.
Companies exploiting sand in the Hong (Red), Da, Ca Lo, Cong and Cau rivers will be rearranged to meet the new material demands
Theplan aims to meet the capital's demand for quality building materialswhile also creating an excess to sell to other provinces and exportmarkets and improving local living standards./.
