On March 14, the "50 People Forum on Cement Economy" sponsored by China Cement Network was successfully held in Hangzhou. At the forum, Xu Bin, general manager of Jiangsu Helin Cement , said that from the experience of 2022, we can see that even the largest market is fragile. Once there is a serious imbalance between supply and demand, all the efforts made by enterprises will not be able to show in the market. & nbsp; & nbsp;

Last year, affected by the epidemic control in Shanghai, the cement market in Jiangsu was seriously damaged. According to the cement big data of China Cement Network, the cement output in Jiangsu in 2022 was 142 million tons, down 7.6% year-on-year. The impact of the epidemic in Shanghai lasted until the second half of last year, said Xu Bin. Faced with the downturn of the market, the industry should hold a group to warm up and face it together.

For the trend of the cement market in 2023, Xu Bin believes that the demand has reached the bottom last year and will not continue to decline, and the cement market will be mainly stable this year. In order to avoid the occurrence of "price war" in the short term, Xu Bin proposed that large enterprises should play a leading role in maintaining the market environment. In the long run, the industry should balance the contradiction between supply and demand, and resolve the excess capacity from the market level, in order to ensure the healthy and orderly development of the cement industry.
