according to the China Cement Market Data Center. Due to the continuous high temperature weather in

Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the demand of the construction industry has weakened, resulting in a general decline in cement sales, including Yangzhou, Taizhou, Huaian, Nanjing, Zhenjiang and other places in Jiangsu. The construction site in Anhui also slowed down due to the high temperature weather, and the demand was weak. Cement prices in Zaozhuang, Linyi, Jining, Tai'an and other places declined due to the cloudy weather and the resumption of clinker production in Shandong. In Fujian, due to the arrangement of off-peak kiln shutdown issued by the Building Materials Industry Association, leading enterprises generally raise the price of all kinds of cement, but the market demand is not ideal, and the implementation of the price increase remains to be observed. Due to the increase in raw material prices and production costs in Jiangxi, enterprises in Nanchang, Fuzhou, Yichun and other places have raised cement prices, but the market demand and sales are weak, and the specific implementation remains to be observed. On the whole, the cement market is facing challenges in terms of price and sales volume due to the dual impact of reduced demand and rising costs.
