2、 Cement Net Exclusive: How is the implementation of the 50 yuan/ton cement price increase in Hunan?

Since the 12th, many enterprises in Hunan began to raise the price of cement by 50 yuan/ton due to the increase in production costs caused by the rising price of raw materials and the off-peak shutdown of kilns. However, due to the increasing difficulty of coordination among enterprises and the pressure of external market competition (such as the ineffective implementation of price adjustment in Hubei market), the implementation of specific price increases is complex and market stability is affected. At the same time, the cement industry in Hunan is facing a severe situation, and some enterprises have taken measures such as salary cuts and layoffs.

7、 Cement Net Comments: How can Sand Enterprises Stand Firm and Not Be "Beaten Off the Horse" When Bankruptcy and Unsuccessful Auction Appear Frequently?

The bankruptcy of sand and gravel enterprises in Leping City, Jiangxi Province, reflects the pressure of sand and gravel industry. In 2024, many sand and gravel enterprises have gone bankrupt, the market demand has declined, and the sand and gravel mining rights have been sold frequently. In order to survive, enterprises need to reduce costs, transform and upgrade, emphasize cost control and market competition self-discipline, and avoid vicious competition. Large enterprises should take the lead and jointly respond to market challenges.

This reflects the changing trend of current market demand and supply.
