China's raw material industry runs smoothly

the Ministry of industry and information technology recently released the operation of China's raw material industry in the first quarter. In the first quarter, against the backdrop of China's overall economic stability and steady progress, China's raw material industry had a stable start, industry confidence was boosted, and market expectations were significantly improved

the building materials industry ushered in a "good start"

in the first quarter, the production of building materials maintained growth. In January, the added value of the building materials industry increased by 11.1% year-on-year, 4.6 percentage points higher than that of the whole industry. Among them, the national cement output from January to march was 390 million tons, with a year-on-year increase of 9.4%; The output of flat glass was 220million weight boxes, an increase of 6.0% year-on-year; The output of commercial concrete was 410million cubic meters, with a year-on-year increase of 13.7%

the economic benefits of the building materials industry increased significantly. In June, enterprises above Designated Size in the building materials industry achieved an operating revenue of 1104.95 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15.3%, a total profit of 78.98 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 13.6%, and a sales profit margin of 7.1%.

The total profits of cement products, special glass, sanitary ceramics and waterproof building materials increased by 39.4%, 13.5%, 28.9% and 26% year-on-year respectively

steel exports were better than expected

in the first quarter, the overall operation of the steel industry was stable, and the capacity utilization rate continued to remain within a reasonable range

-- output increased year on year. In the first quarter, the output of pig iron, crude steel and steel (including repeated materials) in China was 195 million tons, 231 million tons and 269 million tons respectively, with a year-on-year increase of 9.3%, 9.9% and 10.8% respectively, maintaining a rapid growth trend. According to the analysis, real estate, railway infrastructure, home appliances and other industries in the downstream steel industry have achieved rapid growth, which has promoted the growth of steel consumption

-- steel prices rose slightly. In the first quarter, steel prices fell first and then rose. By the end of March, the steel price index was 109.69 points, an increase of 0.8% compared with the tensile testing machine, and an increase of 2.4% compared with the beginning of the year

-- steel exports were better than expected. In the first quarter, the export of steel was 17.025 million tons, with a year-on-year increase of 12.6%, and the export amount was 92.21 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 8.1%, which was significantly better than expected

confidence in the non-ferrous metal industry has been boosted

driven by tax cuts and fee reductions and other relevant favorable policies, the non-ferrous metal market has been boosted

according to the price, the dimensional stability is very high under high temperature. In March, the average spot prices of copper, aluminum, lead and zinc were 49702 yuan/ton, 13803 yuan/ton, 17166 yuan/ton and 22495 yuan/ton respectively. Except for lead, the prices rose by about 3% compared with January.

see production. In the first quarter, the output of ten non-ferrous metals in China was 13.7 million tons, with a year-on-year increase of 6.3%. Among them, the output of copper, aluminum, lead and zinc was 2.05 million tons and 8.57 million tons respectively, and the constant tension required to work from empty to full was 1.43 million tons and 1.31 million tons, with a year-on-year increase of 8.8%, 4%, 32.6% and -5.1% respectively.
