According to the China Cement Network Market Data Center, the price of cement in Lanzhou, Baiyin and other places in Gansu Province has been raised recently. Can the price increase be implemented? How about the recovery of Gansu market? China Cement Network has exchanged with the relevant leaders of several cement enterprises in Gansu Province. An industry insider
in Dingxi said that the increase in cement prices in Gansu was mainly 20/ton in Lanzhou, Baiyin and Dingxi, and 30 yuan/ton in Longnan and Tianshui. "At present, it is still in the stage of promoting price increases, and whether it can be implemented remains to be seen." According to the source, the price increase is mainly due to the high cost of cement production, but some major projects in Gansu have been suspended, cement demand has shifted from relying on key projects to tapping the civil market, cement demand will also be affected by the off-peak season and weather, and then the company's target task will be very difficult to complete.
"Our enterprise is raising the price of all kinds of cement by 30/ton." A person from an enterprise in Longnan said that the price adjustment was mainly due to the price reduction last year, cement prices generally fell to a low ebb, and enterprises had a strong desire to raise prices. However, according to the person, many projects in Longnan this year have reached the final stage, and the demand for cement is not optimistic. At the same time, one kiln of the enterprise has been opened, and another is expected to open on April 1. At present, the inventory is high, and the pressure of leaving the factory is great, so whether the price can be implemented depends on the situation of the same industry.
According to an enterprise source in Tianshui, the enterprise signed some important projects at the end of last year, and the price increase has been put in place, but the overall market is still not very good this year. Relevant person in charge of an enterprise
in Lanzhou said that the price increase was due to the low inventory pressure of the enterprise, and the factory planned to open the kiln on March 14, so it was very confident to implement the price increase. However, the downstream market has not yet recovered.
In addition, feedback from an enterprise in Pingliang is also planning to raise prices recently. However, many projects in Gansu have been suspended this year, feeling that there is no demand, the market is very depressed, and it can not start.
Cement industry has serious overcapacity, the impact of peak staggering production on the supply side has declined significantly, the "competition and cooperation relationship" formed over the years has broken down, and the pressure of industry operation has doubled. How should the cement industry get out of the predicament and face the new cycle?
On March 28-29, China Cement Network will hold the "13th China Cement Industry Summit and TOP100 Award Ceremony" in Hangzhou, during which awards will be given to top 100 cement and supplier enterprises, and experts and scholars will be invited. China Railway and other construction units jointly discuss the new development trend of the cement industry in the future, and work together to create the future!
