China National Building Materials said on Wednesday its cement sales volume rose 72 percent in the first quarter from a year ago under the country's stimulus measures that have focused on infrastructure projects.

The company expects to sell 127 million tons of cement this year, surpassing Anhui Conch to become the largest cement maker in China, President Thomas Cao told reporters.

It sold 72 million tons of cement in 2008.
