Staggered production provides an important guarantee for the cement industry to alleviate the pressure of overcapacity and stabilize the efficiency of the industry, and Xinjiang is an example.
Xinjiang, like most parts of the country, is facing a serious problem of overcapacity, but in 2023 , Xinjiang cement grew against the trend, cement production increased by about 20% year-on-year, and cement profits amounted to 3.8 billion yuan, accounting for about 12% of the national cement profits. Lv Zhijian, president of
Xinjiang Building Materials Industry Association, introduced that Xinjiang was the first to practice and explore peak staggering production, and has been unremitting for eight years. Up to now, the whole industry has benefited from off-peak production. In the case of serious overcapacity, the whole industry has developed steadily and healthily, without any loss-making enterprises , which ensures that the government has tax revenue, enterprises have profits, employees have stable income and employment is guaranteed. In the case of serious surplus in the
cement market, price war can not solve any problems , disorderly competition will only lead to low-price competition, widespread losses, "no food to eat when the table is lifted". Since
this year, the competition for share among cement enterprises in the market along the Yangtze River has intensified, and the price of cement has been declining or even falling below the cost line. As of April 10, the price of cement along the Yangtze River was generally around 220 yuan/ton, and the quotation of some enterprises in Chongqing, Hubei and Anhui even dropped to 180-200 yuan/ton. Under such circumstances, how to ensure that the government has tax revenue, enterprises have profits, employees have stable income, and employment is guaranteed?
The cement industry will eventually move towards "harmony" , between enterprises and enterprises, between regions and regions, and do a good job of coordination and win-win cooperation. There is no way
to stagger peak production at present. At present, the main problem of peak staggering production is that some enterprises have insufficient understanding of the importance and urgency of peak staggering production. Secondly, a small number of provinces have insufficient supervision over peak-staggering production, and the implementation of peak-staggering production can not be separated from the support of local governments. Thirdly, the organization of some provincial associations is not enough.
Some people in the industry suggest:
First, we should adhere to the peak staggering production, improve the effect of peak staggering production, and maximize the pace of peak staggering production.
2. All provinces in the country implement peak staggering and cross-regional coordination.
3. The competent government departments shall issue peak-staggering production documents to ensure the strength and seriousness of the implementation of peak-staggering production.
In addition, still can:
one, establish industrial fund, advance paid exit, company annex recombines.
2. Setting the bottom line of cement industry price.
3. Market supervision departments should take active actions to crack down on all kinds of unfair competition and maintain a fair, just and orderly market environment.
4. The competent government departments have promulgated relevant policies to reduce production capacity, resolve the problem of overcapacity, promote policies and measures in terms of energy consumption and carbon emissions, strengthen relevant standards and assessments, and eliminate some backward production capacity.
