In recent years, a large number of cement clinker production lines have been built in Guangxi. According to the list of China's top 100 cement clinker production capacity in 2023, the clinker production capacity of Guangxi in 2023 was 3.255 million tons per year, ranking first in the country. The reason why
Guangxi can attract so many enterprises to build successively is that besides the abundant and high-quality limestone resources, relying on the Xijiang Golden Waterway and the Pearl River Delta market with relatively strong radiation demand is also an important reason why many cement enterprises choose to build lines in Guangxi. After the
new production line is put into operation, market space is needed, but the market capacity of Guangxi is seriously excessive and the contradiction between supply and demand is very prominent. When the local market can not digest the huge supply, it is an inevitable trend for Guangxi to increase the export of cement .
However, due to the limited capacity of the Xijiang River, seasonal factors and limited coverage, there are still some barriers to the export of cement in Guangxi.
Recently, six containers loaded with 192 tons of cement clinker were successfully loaded in Beiliudong freight yard of Wuzhou Freight Center in Guangxi.
This batch of cement clinker is produced by Beiliu Conch Cement Co., Ltd. According to China Cement Network, the company has two 5000t/d cement clinker production lines. Before that, the company's cement clinker was transported by road, mainly for processing and use in Zhanjiang, Maoming and other cement plants in Guangdong Province. This is the company's first attempt to ship cement clinker in 20-foot 35-ton open-top boxes by rail. The annual demand for cement clinker
of Zhanjiang Conch Cement Co., Ltd. is more than 500,000 tons, of which 150,000 tons will come from Beiliu Conch Cement Co., Ltd. in 2023. It is reported that the demand for cement clinker from Beiliu Conch Cement Co., Ltd. to Zhanjiang this year is about 200,000 tons. Next, the company will transport about 10,000 tons of cement clinker by railway every month.
The railway has large traffic volume and all-weather transportation, which can meet the transportation demand of conch cement in large quantities. The opening of railway transportation is bound to increase the clinker supply and cement production of Conch Cement in Guangdong, and its influence in the Guangdong market may be further enhanced.
It can be seen that Conch Cement will increase its "conquest" efforts in the Guangdong market, which may have a great impact on the Pearl River Delta and even the whole Guangdong market.
