This week, the concrete market in Inner Mongolia and Shanxi continued the pattern of weak supply and demand. The central and western parts of Inner Mongolia were impacted by low-price cement, and the price of commercial mixing fell synchronously.

Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei: This week, the overall demand for concrete in North China is light, the price of raw materials has not fluctuated significantly, and the price of mainstream commercial concrete is weak and stable. It is worth noting that since July 18, cement enterprises in Shijiazhuang and other places have notified an increase of 30 yuan/ton, which has led to supply contraction and upward signal of raw material cost. If the price is pushed up this time, it is expected that it will be gradually transmitted to the commercial mixing link, and the local market in southern Hebei may be the first to usher in the rise of commercial mixing prices; the rest of the region is still mainly to stabilize prices in the short term due to insufficient demand and high inventory.

Shanxi, Inner Mongolia: This week, the concrete market in Inner Mongolia and Shanxi continued the pattern of weak supply and demand. The central and western parts of Inner Mongolia were impacted by low-price cement, and the price of commercial mixing fell synchronously. The actual transaction price in Shanxi market continued to bottom out, and the low price in Taiyuan area was under pressure. With weak demand and downward transmission of raw material prices, it is expected that the mixed prices of the two places will remain under pressure.
