On February 20, when many places in Shandong were covered with snow, the news came out that the price of cement had risen by 20-30 yuan/ton. The construction site is not suitable for construction

in snowy weather, so it is unreasonable to raise the price at this time. According to the verification of China Cement Network Market Data Center, the price increase news comes from a manufacturer in Laiwu, Jinan, which is not universal, and the implementation of the price increase is not optimistic. A person in charge of a cement enterprise in Jining,

, told China Cement Net that continuous heavy snowfall after the Spring Festival is very rare. Due to the recent rain and snow weather, the sales volume of the enterprise was zero from February 20 to 21. Affected by the weather, this year's Shandong cement market started much slower than in previous years.

In addition, the two sessions will be held in March, and some construction sites may be suspended. The real recovery of Shandong cement market may not begin until the middle and late March, and the previous cement prices did not have the conditions to rise.
