Recently, cement prices have been raised in many places. What is the market situation in Anhui? China Cement Network has investigated some cement enterprises in Anhui.
According to the survey of China Cement Network, on October 25, the price of bulk cement in Anhui increased by 20 yuan/ton, and on November 3, the price of bagged cement increased by 20 yuan/ton.
"Basically all of them have been implemented." A person in charge of a cement enterprise in Anhui said, " Coal prices are relatively high now, and the price increase is mainly due to cost reasons." A sales staff of a cement plant disclosed to China Cement Network that the current price of coal entering the factory is about 1100 yuan/ton .
In addition, some manufacturers said that Shandong and Henan are about to enter the winter peak , and the supply is tight, which also provides impetus for the rise of cement prices in Anhui.
According to China Cement Network, the peak staggering production of heating season in Shandong Province lasted for 120 days from November 15, 2023 to March 15, 2024. Cement enterprises in Henan Province will participate in shutdown from November 15, and Grade A enterprises will implement independent emission reduction from November 15, 2023 to March 15, 2024; Grade B enterprises will implement off-peak shutdown from November 15, 2023 to January 20, 2024 and from February 10, 2024 to March 15, 2024; Grade C enterprises will implement peak load shifting and shutdown from November 15, 2023 to January 31, 2024 and from February 11, 2024 to March 15, 2024; Grade D enterprises will implement peak load shifting and shutdown from November 15, 2023 to March 15, 2024.
In view of the follow-up market trend, a cement enterprise in Anhui said that although the demand for cement in the fourth quarter is likely to remain weak, cement prices are expected to continue to rise as many places start to stop kilns at the wrong peak.
However, some enterprises said that they were not optimistic about the next market trend, and that there was limited room for cement prices to rise under the weak market demand.
With the decline of cement demand and the arrival of the peak of production capacity, the market competition is becoming increasingly fierce, and a cyclical industry shuffle is inevitable. Relying on digital and intelligent technology means, realizing technology and management upgrading, continuously reducing energy consumption, pollutant emissions and carbon emissions, and enhancing the comprehensive competitiveness of enterprises are the key for cement enterprises to meet the challenges.
To this end, China Cement Network will hold the Fifth China Cement Intelligence Summit Forum in Hangzhou on November 29, 2023, with the theme of "Data-Driven Decision-Making Intelligence Leads the Future", inviting industry experts, scholars and representatives of relevant enterprises. To jointly explore and promote the intelligent process of the cement industry.
