4、 Cement Net Exclusive: Demand Declines Seriously + Small and Medium-sized Enterprises Are Difficult to Self-discipline, Henan Cement Market Is Under Great Pressure

Local cement enterprises said that most of Henan cement enterprises faced losses in the first nine months of this year due to the long-term downturn in market prices, the difficulty of raising prices and the difficulty of maintaining them. As for the reasons for the downturn in the cement market in Henan, the above-mentioned cement enterprises believe that there are mainly two aspects: 1. The demand for cement in Henan Province has declined seriously. According to reports, in previous years, the demand for cement in Henan has relied heavily on the real estate industry. In recent years, after the real estate industry entered the downward channel, the demand for cement in Henan Province has fallen rapidly. The above-mentioned enterprises said that the pressure of declining demand in the future will be greater, and the price melee in Henan cement market may be unavoidable.
