More than 40 finishing building-materials production bases were built and over 60 similar bases updated last year, thanks to the efforts of working people across the country.

Different districts and counties in Pyongyang Municipality additionally installed new equipment or updated existing production processes to produce and supply quality finishing building materials for rural housing construction.
