According to information of this Association, nationwide cement consumption for 4 months of 2012 declined 8% and cement production reduced about 6.5% compared to the same period of 2011 while cement production capacity in 2012 increased 10% compared to 2011. Input costs for electricity, coal and petrol … have continued to increase. In turn, selling price of cement did not increase because of higher supply than demand, reduced consumption power and large inventory. Some cement companies must limit production and risk suspending cement production.
