The cement industry is currently facing two serious problems, one is the rapid decline in demand, and the other is the serious overcapacity. In this case, the association should not only take the initiative and actively appeal to the government to bring policy dividends to the industry, but also provide value-added services for member units according to the needs of members. To strengthen the work of "anti-involution and steady growth", we need more work from associations at all levels. I have a few suggestions for your reference:

In August 2025, large-scale protests and riots broke out throughout Indonesia, causing social unrest and unprecedented challenges for the cement industry. Previously, Indonesia's cement industry has been affected by infrastructure slowdown, weak demand and environmental pressure. The riots caused transport hubs to be blocked, affecting the supply of raw materials and the distribution of finished products, increasing production costs, delaying many projects and reducing construction demand. The stock market and bond market are under pressure, and the outflow of foreign capital delays the recovery of the industry. China's cement companies in Indonesia have also been hit. In the short term, the industry may decline and costs will rise. If the government quells the riots, it may take advantage of the rebound in infrastructure investment.

According to the Indonesian Cement Association (ASI), Indonesia's domestic cement sales in the first half of 2025 were 27.7 million tons, down 2.5% from the same period last year. The slowdown in domestic infrastructure projects has led to a decline in overall demand for cement in Indonesia. From the perspective of regions, except for Sumatra and Maluku-Papua, which achieved growth in cement sales due to the demand for infrastructure projects, the sales of cement in other regions showed a downward trend, and the overall cement market was significantly affected by the progress of infrastructure projects.

Tapai Group responded that in recent years, the cement industry has entered a demand platform period, facing challenges such as declining demand, prominent contradiction between supply and demand, rising costs, and fierce competition. Since the beginning of this year, the benefits of the cement industry have been significantly improved compared with the same period last year under the combined effect of restricting overproduction and increasing the intensity of peak staggering production. According to the data of China Cement Association, the total profit of the cement industry in the first half of this year is expected to reach 15-16 billion yuan, which has achieved a significant turnaround compared with the loss situation of the whole industry in the same period last year, but whether it can be sustained remains to be further observed.

Generally speaking, the larger the production line, the more competitive it is in terms of cost control, energy efficiency and production efficiency. However, under the premise of "supplementary production capacity", how much benefit will the legalization of those illegal production lines by expanding the scale of production capacity bring to the results of capacity removal, optimizing the industrial layout, promoting the dynamic balance of supply and demand in the market, and promoting the high-quality development of the cement industry?

2025-07-22 14:11:32

The overall implementation rate of peak staggering production is 75%, and problems such as regional imbalance and insufficient self-discipline of enterprises still exist. Based on the local reality, each district analyzes the underlying reasons for the "difficulty in execution": some enterprises are trying to seize market share, resulting in an imbalance between supply and demand in the market; the regional coordination mechanism is imperfect, and the means of supervision are limited; the superimposed market demand is weak, and the "involution" competition in the industry is intensified.

In the process of pursuing efficient allocation of resources and full release of market potential in the cement industry, market problems mainly depend on the market to solve. Production capacity is an important and sensitive topic in the cement industry. For each cement clinker production line, it is OK to have a registered production capacity, but it seems useless to have more.

2025-06-12 11:15:21

At present, the main obstacle to anti-involution lies in large enterprise groups. They do not realize that they are the main producers of overcapacity. They do not realize that they are the main force to initiate involution. They do not realize that only when they are strict with themselves, find more reasons from themselves, and have more good thoughts for small and medium-sized enterprises, can many things be solved!

2025-06-09 16:38:21

Illegal production capacity should be controlled in accordance with the law and regulations from the very beginning, instead of being hastily done by supplementing production capacity after years of illegal "dividends", which is obviously unfair to law-abiding enterprises. After completing the replenishment of production capacity, how to punish the previous violations of enterprises is also worth considering by the industry regulatory authorities.

It is hoped that through the joint efforts of all parties in the industry, the self-discipline of the industry will be further deepened and a good ecological environment of the industry will be maintained.
