- Cembureau established what was known as the "Cembureau agreement or principle of not transhipping to internal European markets".

The Cembureau members regularly exchanged information on prices. This too is a practice that infringes Article 85, since its aim was to ensure that all producers would align their prices on the local "price leader" in the event of cross-frontier sales, thus ensuring that the relevant supplies did not disrupt the level of prices on the market in another country The single and continuous agreement relating to the Cembureau Task Force is a clear breach of Article 85 designed to prevent cement imports into the Community from non-Community countries and to seal off national markets to the benefit of local producers and the detriment of consumers The decision to s ...[+++]et up a joint trading company, Interciment, similarly constitutes an agreement between undertakings, prohibited by Article 85.

RESTRICTIVE PRACTICES BETWEEN CEMBUREAU AND ITS MEMBERS In the course of its investigation, the Commission found that the producers represented within the European organization Cembureau were engaging in practices designed to "contribute to the establishment of healthy competition" and "establish rules of the game amongst themselves so as to avoid improper competition".
