"Now the price of cement is at its lowest level in nearly five years." Zhejiang, as one of the provinces with the strongest demand for cement in East China, is now in a bleak market.
According to the China Cement Network Market Data Center, the weather in Zhejiang has improved since September, the market demand has recovered from the previous period, and the shipments of enterprises have remained at 6-8%. However, due to the loosening of clinker prices along the Yangtze River, the price of clinker in Zhejiang Province fell by 10-20 yuan/ton last week. The sales manager of a large cement enterprise in Quzhou,
Zhejiang, said that at present, the shipment volume of the enterprise is better than before, the amount of work has increased, the demand for mixing stations has not improved much, and the overall shipment is still general. "Now the market is not confident enough, and if the supply side is not compressed, the market will not rise." The person in charge added. A cement company
in Huzhou also said that the recent shipments were good, but the price of cement was very low, and the company was on the verge of losing money.
According to the price of Zhejiang cement tracked by China Cement Network, the price of Zhejiang cement in 2023 is similar to that in most parts of the country, which is in a state of "falling endlessly", and is now the lowest level in the past five years.
In addition, the Hangzhou Asian Games will be held soon. According to the feedback from the cement enterprises, the cement enterprises have not yet received the production control measures, but the tightening of transportation and construction control may have a certain impact on the cement market.
