China Midwestern Cement Industry Production and Marketing Demand and Investment
Forecast Report
According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2010, there were 2,049
enterprises above designated size in the midwestern cement industry, achieving the sales
revenue of 206.832 billion Yuan, and gaining the total profit of 16.099 billion Yuan.
In terms of overall national cement industry, in 2010, the output volume of cement in
China was 1.868 billion tons, with a year-on-year increase of 15.5%. It’s predicted the
newly increased output capacity was about 90 million tons in 2011, and the elimination
of backward capacity was about 100 million tons, so the total capacity was slightly less
than that of 2010. The total capacity in 2011 was generally 2.25 billion tons. In terms of
demand, in 2011, “4 trillion Yuan stimulation policy” has less and less effect on
promoting the development of cement industry, while most of projects are under
construction, so it still plays a supporting role in cement demand. Moreover, the
construction of water conservancy, high-speed rail and other projects also provide some
assurance for the cement demand.
Under such a circumstance that the national cement industry turns to be good, the
midwest cement industry continues to develop at a certain growth pace, but the
development speed will tend to slow. In particular, the problem of over capacity
becomes prominent in the industry. Thus, the overall trend of midwest cement industry
was optimistic in 2010, but the future development situation is rather rigorous.
Meanwhile, the State accelerated to eliminate the backward capacity in 2011, and the
cement industry has been listed as the key object to eliminate. On July 7th
2011, the
MIIT (the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology) announced the enterprises
names with backward capacity that need to be eliminated among 18 industrial
industries, and required to do well the examination and acceptance work, and to finish
this task before the end of 2011. Among them, 782 cement enterprises are in the list, and
the total capacity that needs to eliminate is 153 million tons, up by 133 million than that
of pre-stage prediction.
The elimination of backward capacity for midwest areas this time from high to low is
southwest, mid-south and northwest, the total volume of backward capacity needing to
be eliminated is 27.07 million tons, 14.40 million tons, and 4.23 million tons
respectively at the end of 2011; the eliminated impact kinetic energy (eliminated impact
kinetic energy index: eliminated volume/10-year output volume) by province:
Chongqing, Sichuan, and Guizhou, etc is relatively high. The eliminated impact kinetic

2. energy volume in the above provinces is 11%, 11% and 9% respectively. If all the
eliminated backward capacity plans have been implemented at the end of the year
according to relevant regulations, the prosperity degree of cement industry in provinces
mentioned above will be somewhat improved.
With the acceleration of eliminating backward capacity, and the growing competition in
midwestern cement industry, acquisition and capital operation among large enterprises
become more and more frequent. The domestic excellent midwestern cement
manufacturing enterprises pay more attention to the industry market research, especially
to the indepth researches on the industry development environment and product buyers.
Because of this, a large number of excellent cement brands rise up rapidly, and
gradually become leading corporations in cement industry!
With Forward’s long-term tracking and collecting market data of midwestern cement
