On March 14, the "50 People Forum on Cement Economy" sponsored by China Cement Network was successfully held in Hangzhou. At the forum, Zhuge Wenda, chairman of Century Xinf eng Leishan Cement , said that the national cement production will continue to decline in the future. & nbsp; & nbsp;
In the short term, Zhuge Wenda predicts that the cement market will rebound after the end of the epidemic. From 2023 to 2024, the annual cement output will recover to 2.1 billion tons to 2.2 billion tons. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the annual cement output in 2022 was 2.13 billion tons, 10.5% lower than previous year.
As for the medium and long-term cement market development forecast, he said that in the future, the national cement output will continue to decline. By 2025-2030, the national cement sales will drop to 1.4 billion tons.
In this regard, Zhuge Wenda put forward five suggestions: 1. Cement enterprises should cherish the current opportunity for the country to grasp the infrastructure and economy. The key is to control the output and reduce the game among enterprises. & nbsp; & nbsp;
2. Large regional enterprises should have the awareness of leading the market launch rhythm and put it into action. It is better to play a chess game in the whole country, at least in the region, especially in peak staggering production, large enterprises should play a leading role. & nbsp; & nbsp;
3. The industry should change from capacity replacement to joint acquisition of capacity and unified capacity reduction. Faced with the current situation, large enterprises should lead the integration of production capacity and further improve market concentration. Small and medium-sized enterprises should transform and develop in time while improving their core competitiveness.
4. Pay attention to the demand for cement in agricultural development. For example, the construction of irrigation facilities, channels and roads in the southern farmland, and the high-rise breeding mode in the breeding industry.
5. When the price of cement is too low, large enterprises should lead the coordinated development of the local market.
