In the first quarter of Sichuan, kilns were shut down at the wrong peak, raw material enterprises had low storage positions, and some enterprises had limited shipments, but due to demand, the price of concrete rose fatigue. In Chongqing market, in terms of demand, housing construction projects are still declining, mainly relying on municipal infrastructure projects such as factory buildings and parks. The price of raw materials has risen and fallen, the cost of concrete has been further narrowed, and the market competition is fierce, so the price of concrete is weak.
