According to market feedback, the weather has been mostly fine in recent days, the market demand has recovered rapidly, the shipment volume of enterprises can reach about 6-7%, and the inventory has declined significantly. Since February 22, some major manufacturers along the Yangtze River in Anhui have been notified to raise the clinker price by about 20 yuan/ton in the third round, and the surrounding Jiangsu and Zhejiang markets will gradually follow up. After adjustment, the price of clinker along the Yangtze River is about 330-340 yuan/ton. A person in charge of a cement enterprise
in Anhui told China Cement Network that in addition to the recovery of market demand, the high cost pressure brought by high coal prices is also the reason for the price increase. "Although coal prices have fallen this year, they are still at a high level.". Now the price of coal to the factory is about 1300 yuan/ton.
Another person in charge of a cement enterprise said: "This year, a number of high-speed rail projects in Anhui have been started, and the demand boost is the main reason for this round of price increases." It is understood that Suzhou, Chuzhou, Bengbu, Xuzhou, Huaibei, Zaozhuang and other places have raised the price of cement.
"The price dropped too low last year." Local cement companies said that despite the rise in cement prices, due to the low price of cement in the early stage, the expectation of price increase in the current market is still relatively strong.
On March 15-16, China Cement Network will hold the "2023 China Cement Industry Summit" in Hangzhou. At that time, colleagues in the national cement and related industries will gather together to discuss the future trend of the cement market. Please pay attention.
