Zhongheng Cai Zhixiong derived general manager looked at more than 20 cities, one by one investigation in local recognition and acceptance are derived. Cai Zhixiong have a new idea: zhongheng Southampton plant to grow into a high-end production base, are derived low-end product is transferred to the guangxi He Zhou are derived.
Held in mid-august He Zhoushi pitch (shuitou) stone industry, seven south qi and He Zhou municipal government signed the cooperation agreement. If agreement full cash, future He Zhou at least 33 new production line are derived, the new capacity of nearly 33 million square meters, are derived its scale is big, what have to catch up with the local artificial stone industry. Nanan why artificial stone enterprises into He Zhou? This wave of migration of "capacity" mean for the industry?
Seven south enterprise aiming at He Zhou artificial stone held in mid-august of guangxi He Zhoushi seminar (shuitou) stone industry, started a new round of south qi He Zhou "Denver heat". The seven companies are respectively signed with He Zhou zhongheng are derived, ChengShiYe, chess sheng stone, joyhon stone, thousands of litres are derived, dahua stone and south fai are derived, in addition to the three is production enterprises are derived, the rest are natural stone material processing factory.
Collective into He Zhou doesn't happen by accident. Prior to that, a lot of Southampton businesses often are derived to buy artificial stone powder sand raw materials, in guangxi for example and source, conley, yongtai three companies are derived, already scooped layout in guangxi man-made stone production project. Last year, yongtai derived in He Zhou of building a stone factory, 120 acres of hills, plan the monthly output of 800000 square meters, at present, the factory has started construction, is expected to begin next year. The signing of seven companies primarily in He Zhoushi west bay (guangxi) ping industrial park, new plant site location and area of most enterprises have been confirmed, such as project to start construction after landing.
"A while ago to He Zhou looked at the plot, the location is very good, now wait for all sorts of checked can start construction, is expected to start next year." Thousands of litres are derived, chairman of Wang Wanzhu said. This time, thousands of litres of breath are derived to sign the annual output of 6 million square meters of the project are derived, next year plans to begin production first 2 production lines.
To He Zhou reporter noted that the "gold rush" moves very atmosphere, most enterprises signed annual capacity in 5 million square meters, the highest in a 8 million square meters. "According to the momentum of development, He Zhou artificial stone industry is likely to overtake at Southampton in the future." An unnamed stone enterprise boss, currently about 50 lines are derived at Southampton, and He Zhou plan new artificial stone production line and more than 30, with the play of the advantages of the raw materials, the future He Zhou will become another man-made stone production in China.
Buck the artificial stone market expansion has lack of red land into a bottleneck
Nanan stone enterprise collective into He Zhou, what kind of signal behind it released? "On the other hand, artificial stone consumption growing rapidly, more and more companies to bet on artificial stone, the need to expand capacity; on the other hand, the vicious competition and industry low cut thin profits, many companies want to reduce the cost. This foray into He Zhou, HTC local raw materials advantage." Cai Zhixiong said.
Cai Zhixiong puts it. Nearly two years, affected by the global economic crisis, as natural stone general decline in demand for high-end decorative materials, and inexpensive artificial stone instead risen, become a branch of fastest stone industry development, both in the domestic market and export market, are remarkable achievements.
"Also can obviously feel the special points last year, this year we have from the first busy to the end of the year, the business is better than last year. Not surprisingly, man-made stone market next year will continue to red." Cai Zhixiong said, zhongheng derived the existing two production lines have been unable to meet the demand of the order, already imperative.
Man-made stone is admired the contrarian wave red evil spirit a lot of natural stone material processing and traders, more and more enterprises into artificial stone industry, only three or four years, from five or six south a man-made stone enterprises to the present nearly 30, market competition is increasingly heated.
"Artificial stone production equipment to occupy space is too big, if you want to expand produces, old factory building simply not enough." Wang Wanzhu said, due to the shortage of land resources, now head a mu to price has more than 100 ten thousand yuan, the land they have lost interest.
Big price war in southwest of vicious circle to ease the cost pressure
", since the beginning of the silt, such as artificial ishihara resin materials rise in price, again further down the profits of artificial stone. Although sales go up, but every business do very hard." In Cai Zhixiong view, only taking advantage of raw materials, reduce the production cost, make more cost-effective products, enterprises to survive, it is also the south collective enterprises into He Zhou an important reason.
Learned, man-made stone, the main raw materials of the calcium carbonate is mainly produced in guangxi, guangdong, henan and other places, especially in guangxi He Zhou, it has more than the amount of calcium carbonate resources not only and is very good, is always at Southampton artificial stone enterprises consider mainly raw materials procurement. According to calculation, only He Zhou flat guangxi mineral resources administrative zones have marble, will account for 1/8 of the total national marble resources, vision reserves of 2.8 billion cubic meters, has proven reserves of 98.86 million cubic meters.
"At the beginning of each sales season, man-made stone has many enterprises because not rob raw materials and reduce shipment." Yongtai derived Wu Qingze chairman said that if companies transferred to He Zhou, is "the advantage".
Building factory in guangxi besides convenient raw material procurement, can effectively reduce the inventory and transportation cost. According to an unnamed company boss, if the factory transferred to He Zhou, the production cost of every square metre artificial stone is expected to reduce 5 yuan, the annual sales of 2 million square meters, will increase the profit of 10 million yuan a year. "In the southwest of building artificial stone factory, can also be products radiation to surrounding." Ming super stone chairman Huang Mingchao said, although Ming stone no factories in guangxi, but they were three years ago in henan invested two man-made stone
