According to China Cement Network Market Data Center, the recent increase in rainy weather in Anhui Province, affected by many factors such as the entrance examination for high school and college, the overall market demand performance is not good, coupled with the reduction of clinker prices and the impact of foreign low-price cement. Since June 7, some major manufacturers in Wuhu, Ma'anshan and other places have continued to notify the reduction of cement prices by about 10 yuan/ton.
China Cement Network surveyed the Anhui market and learned that the price reduction of clinker was largely affected by the decline in coal prices, but the main reason was the poor demand and the serious contradiction between production and demand.
It is understood that from January to April, fixed assets investment in Anhui Province increased by 6.4%, of which infrastructure investment increased by 15.4% and real estate development investment decreased by 15.3%. A cement company in Ma'anshan said that although the government's investment and support for infrastructure has increased, the demand for cement is still heavily dependent on the real estate market, which is a problem that cement companies have to face. It
can be seen that real estate investment has gradually decreased, and infrastructure investment, as one of the three carriages of fixed assets investment, plays an increasingly prominent role in supporting cement demand. A person in charge of a cement enterprise
in Wuhu said that the layout of cement enterprises in the future will greatly affect the operating efficiency of enterprises. With the decline of the real estate industry, infrastructure construction will shoulder the burden of supporting cement demand. There are more key projects in economically developed areas and fewer key projects in backward areas, and cement enterprises in backward areas will be more difficult to survive.
"In the future, cement enterprises are likely to be centered on the first and second tier big cities." The head of the Wuhu cement enterprise said.
At present, the downward trend of cement demand is prominent, energy prices remain high, costs remain high for a long time, and profit compression has become the norm. Improving energy efficiency and reducing cost pressure have become the key breakthrough points for cement enterprises to enhance their comprehensive strength and market competitiveness.
China Cement Network will hold the "2023 China Cement Energy Conservation and New Energy Development Conference" in Chongqing on July 6-7, 2023. Explore new ways of energy saving and consumption reduction in cement industry.
After the meeting, we will visit Oriental Hope Chongqing Cement .
