Briefing on the operation of the construction materials industry in September 2023

In September, the construction materials industry boom index was 104.6 points, up 5.4 points from the previous month and above the critical point. Seasonal recovery of market demand for building materials, but the problem of insufficient demand still exists, there is uncertainty in the external market environment, the production of the whole industry is weak, the price of products fluctuates at a low level, and the pressure of production and operation of enterprises is still greater. Building materials enterprises to actively respond to changes in the market situation, the industrial structure continues to optimize the economic operation of the momentum continues to accumulate.

1, building materials production performance is weak. According to the national bureau of statistics data, in September above-scale building materials industry added value decreased by 1.7% year-on-year, the rate of decline than the previous month expanded by 0.1 percentage points. 1-9 month, above-scale building materials industry added value growth rate decreased by 0.5% year-on-year, the growth rate than the 1-8 month continued to fall by 0.2 percentage points, lower than the national industrial added value growth rate. in September, in the focus of the monitoring of the 31 kinds of building materials products, 12 kinds of In September, among the 31 building materials products under key monitoring, there were 12 kinds of products with year-on-year growth in output, 19 kinds of products with year-on-year decline in output, and the rate of decline in the output of some products narrowed. Among them, cement enterprises above designated size produced 190 million tons, down 7.2% year-on-year, the rate of decline widened; flat glass production 81.066 million weight boxes, down 6.0% year-on-year, the rate of decline narrowed, flat glass market demand has recovered. 2, some building materials products ex-factory prices rebounded. September building materials industry products ex-factory price index of 91.9 (December 2020 for 100), down 7.1% year-on-year, down 7.1% year-on-year, down 7.1% year-on-year, down 7.1% year-on-year, part of the building materials products ex-factory price index. Year-on-year decline of 7.1%, the rate of decline has been expanded, but the chain fell 0.6%, the rate of decline narrowed. 1-9 month building materials industry factory prices than the same period last year fell 6.4%, the rate of decline has slightly expanded. In building materials 13 classified industries, building technology glass, fiber reinforced plastics, non-metallic mineral processing industry, such as 3 industry factory prices higher than the same month last year level, of which, the flat glass factory price growth is obvious. 3, the demand market structure adjustment and optimization effect appeared. 1-9 months, building materials enterprises above designated size business income fell 7.5% year-on-year, the total profit fell 23.7% year-on-year. But building materials industry actively respond to the demand structure change, promote the optimization of product market structure, deep processing products and new materials and other emerging building materials industry economic efficiency is growing. 1-9 months, lightweight building materials, construction glass, technical glass, fiber-reinforced plastics, sanitary ceramics and non-metallic mining and processing industry and other 6 sub-industry revenue, total profit year-on-year growth, flat glass and technical glass industry Total profit rose more year-on-year. 4, building materials industry fixed asset investment slowdown. According to the National Bureau of Statistics data, 1-9 months, the national fixed asset investment (excluding farmers) rose 3.1% year-on-year, the rate of increase continued to narrow. According to the composition, the construction and installation of fixed assets investment rose 2.4% year-on-year; sub-industry, supporting the stable development of the building materials industry, infrastructure investment (excluding electricity, heat, gas and water production and supply industry) rose 6.2% year-on-year. But the building materials industry investment in fixed assets fell 1.9% year-on-year, the rate of decline than the previous month to expand 0.7 percentage points. 5, building materials and non-metallic mining commodities exports declined imports grew. 1-9 months, building materials and non-metallic mining commodities exports amounted to 33.22 billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year decline of 7.0%, compared with the expansion of the January-August month. September, building materials and non-metallic mining commodities exports amounted to 3.30 billion U.S. dollars, down 23.9%. 23.9%, building materials commodities FOB prices fell 33.5% compared to the same month last year. Among them, cement and cement clinker, technical glass, glass fiber yarn, ceramic tiles, sanitary ceramics, bricks, sand and gravel, construction stone, waterproof materials, lightweight building materials, heat and sound insulation materials and other industry products export 'volume increase and price decline'; cement and concrete products, flat glass, graphite and other industry products exports The export of cement and concrete products, flat glass, graphite and other products in the industry 'fell in volume and price'.

January to September, building materials and non-metallic mining commodities imports amounted to 27.43 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 13.1%. September, building materials and non-metallic mining commodities imports amounted to 3.10 billion U.S. dollars, a year-on-year decline of 6.1%, of which, glass fiber yarn, glass fiber fabrics, ceramic bricks, sand and gravel, building stone, lightweight building materials, thermal and acoustic insulation materials, mica and mica products, fluorite, and other building materials industry The amount of commodity imports grew faster.
