2019-01-31

With the continuous improvement of steel production technology and the acceleration of industrial transformation and upgrading, the demandfor high-quality steel raw materials continues to increase.


The price of iron ore, as the main raw material of steel production, has continued to rise. In the international market, the supply of iron ore is

tight, while the demand is increasing. In the domestic market, with the continuous expansion of steel production capacity, the demand for

iron ore is also increasing. However, the increase in iron ore supply is limited, leading to a continuous increase in its price.


The price of coking coal, another important raw material of steel production, has also shown an upward trend. With the tightening of

environmental protection policies and the continuous increase in steel production capacity, the demand for coking coal is also increasing. However, the increase in coking coal supply is slow, leading to a rise in its price.


For steel mills, the rise in raw materials prices has a great impact on their production costs. In order to reduce production costs and improve

product quality, steel mills need to strengthen their management of raw materials procurement and processing technology. At the same time,

steel mills also need to pay attention to market demand and adjust production quotas according to market changes.
