sand and gravel prices have increased and shortages have brought about a series of chain reactions. The supply of mixed is not timely, the project progress is slow, and the quality of gravel is difficult to ensure, which seriously affects the quality and safety of the project construction. The cold winter in the sand, gravel, concrete and cement industries this year may come more violently.
Sand and gravel production limit is limited, construction sites are "emergency"
Due to the influence of environmental protection policies, sand and gravel production limits are limited in many places across the country. The rise in sand and gravel prices has led to a significant increase in concrete prices, and it is difficult to buy even if you have money. Many commercial mixed stations have no sand or stones. A construction site manager introduced: "The concrete label C30 used on the construction site last year was 335 yuan/square, and this year the C30 concrete has increased to 600 yuan/square."
Shandong raw materials prices have risen, commercial mixing costs have increased
Currently Shandong Zibo District C30 concrete price is 475-485 yuan/m2, and raw material cement prices have risen 20-30 yuan/ton. In addition, due to environmental protection, the current market purchase price is 105 yuan/ton, which increases the cost of concrete production. It is expected that the region's concrete market will rise in the short term. Shandong Binzhou area concrete price rose by 20-30 yuan/cn. Due to the recent impact of environmental protection inspections, illegal sand mining has cracked down on demand, resulting in a shortage of yellow sand; the current mainstream C30 concrete in the market is tax-inclusive non-pumping price of 500-510 yuan/cnn. At this stage, the mixing station is limited to shipments and is supplied to contract construction units. Due to slow fund collection and other problems, new projects are temporarily not accepted.
Money lands have raised concrete prices in many places in Zhengzhou
Starting from August 30, concrete prices in some areas around Zhengzhou have been gradually raised. The price of Zhongmu area concrete C30 is tentatively set to 530 yuan/m2, and the guide price of Kaifeng area concrete C30 is adjusted to 560 yuan/m2. Starting from September 1, the Henan Province Overload Management Regulations were officially implemented. The Zhengzhou area of raised the supply price of C30 concrete, and the airport port area announced that the price of C30 concrete was increased to 550 yuan/square.
The concrete market in Lanzhou is very severe
Gansu Province has closed 699 illegal and irregular sand mining sites, 144 sand and gravel yards have been closed, and all material yards have been closed. In recent years, with the improvement of the investment environment, the pace of construction of Lanzhou New District has further accelerated. The sand and gravel materials used for road construction can only be used to draw materials in Shaanxi. not only increases the cost, but also doubles the price. The soaring price of sand and gravel has restricted production of concrete production enterprises, which has made the concrete market in Lanzhou, Gansu very severe.
Xi'an concrete C30 has been raised to 650 yuan/square
As environmental protection inspections become increasingly strict, coupled with the recent improvement of Qinling , Tongchuan , Week to , Luonan , Zhashui , Weinan and other areas have been banned or closed, and sand and gravel market cannot be bought with cash. The Xi'an commercial concrete market has already faced difficulties of having no goods. sand and gravel price per day, and gravel has exceeded 200 yuan/ton, and there are only more than 10 commercial and mixed-use companies operating normally, and many concrete companies are facing the risk of shutting down production.
Guangzhou overload limit, concrete is increased by 100 yuan
Guangzhou In the environment of overload limit, all transportation vehicles, cement trucks, stone trucks, and sand trucks are strictly restricted. The river sand in the Pearl River Delta has increased by more than 300 yuan/cubic meter. The phenomenon of tight supply of river sand also exists in other regions. Huizhou , Meizhou , Heyuan , Qingyuan river sand gap is about 20 million cubic meters. Concrete production costs continue to increase, and many commercial and mixed enterprises have collectively increased their prices, and the concrete price has increased by 100 yuan again.
Environmental protection inspections are strictly carried out, and the nationwide focus on rectification has caused sand and gravel prices to soar, concrete is out of stock, concrete prices have risen, construction sites are shut down and construction periods are extended, and a series of chain reactions brought about by sand and gravel prices have made the construction industry really miserable.
