On November 1, Shenzhen Cement and Products Association issued the "Third Risk Warning on the Fluctuation of Raw Material Price and Cost Information".
On the whole, the construction market in Shenzhen continued to be depressed, the market demand for ready-mixed concrete dropped significantly, and the output of ready-mixed concrete decreased by 23% year on year. The vicious competition in the industry was serious, and it became normal for you to compete with me. The accounts receivable of enterprises increased sharply, and the lack of cash flow affected the daily operation. If this vicious circle continues, there will be an upside-down phenomenon between the price and cost of concrete, which will affect the quality of products. In order to ensure the quality of construction projects in Shenzhen, promote the sustainable development of the industry and maintain a good market order , the Association issued the following proposals for the third time this year:
1. All member units should always adhere to the bottom line of project quality and safety, strengthen quality control, especially not to use raw materials that do not meet the requirements of standards, and not to cut corners;
2. Each member unit can negotiate with the customer to update the supply plan in time according to the current market price fluctuation of raw materials, and try to ensure the normal supply;
3. Each member unit shall rationally accept new project orders, fully consider the factors affecting the change of cost information, quote reasonably, and avoid operating losses;
4. Each member unit shall actively return the payment in a reasonable way, and timely adjust its business ideas according to its own capital situation and market conditions, so as to ensure the sound operation of the enterprise.
On the same day, Dongguan Ready-mixed Concrete Association also issued a "risk warning on the recent rise in raw material prices". The rising price of
raw materials directly leads to the rising production cost of concrete (mortar) in Dongguan City. In view of the large fluctuation of raw material prices, the Association reminds all member units to strengthen communication with customers and inform customers of the fluctuation of raw material prices in a timely manner in order to avoid misunderstandings and disputes between supply and demand. At the same time, all member units should strictly control the entry of raw materials, insist on using qualified raw materials, provide concrete (mortar) supply services for customers with quality and quantity guaranteed, jointly promote the healthy and orderly development of the industry, and ensure the quality and safety of construction projects in Dongguan City.
