韓國建筑行業(yè)下滑 水泥企業(yè)關(guān)閉生產(chǎn)線
最近的政府?dāng)?shù)據(jù)表明第二季度韓國國內(nèi)的建筑定單比去年同期下降了近三分之一,比第一季度下降了14.2%。9天的維修工作,使得韓國最大水泥公司的產(chǎn)量減少其總產(chǎn)能1450萬噸的3%。該公司有關(guān)人士說:“在每年這個(gè)時(shí)候進(jìn)行維修工作對于我們來說是很不正常的,我們通常都是在水泥需求比較少的冬天進(jìn)行維修,這次我們關(guān)閉生產(chǎn)線,主要是由于水泥的銷售情況不好,這也是不良的建筑需求造成的?!痹摴疽呀?jīng)有25萬噸的水泥庫存,這比正常情況要高的多。
由于疲軟的水泥市場,第二大水泥公司也沒有其他選擇。該公司有關(guān)人士說:“水泥是一種很容易變硬的產(chǎn)品,因此它的存放需要特殊的存儲設(shè)備,而我們沒有足夠的設(shè)備?!?p> 據(jù)韓國經(jīng)濟(jì)日報(bào)報(bào)道說,韓國拉法基公司從9月24號起關(guān)閉四條生產(chǎn)線,并且在10月10號之前不會恢復(fù)生產(chǎn),該公司的人并沒有對次報(bào)道發(fā)表意見。
建筑工業(yè)消費(fèi)占韓國經(jīng)濟(jì)消費(fèi)的十分之一。由于大量的出口,韓國政府預(yù)計(jì)今年的經(jīng)濟(jì)可增長5%。

S.Korea cement makers cut output on building slump
Ssangyong Cement and other major South Korean cement makers have cut production as inventories pile up amid a slump in construction spending, company officials said on Friday.
Ssangyong Cement Industrial Co. Ltd, the country's largest cement maker, has shut two of its production lines since Sept. 25 for nine days' maintenance work, said company spokesman Park Joong-seok.
Second-ranked Tong Yang Cement Corp., almost wholly owned by Tong Yang Major Corp, has recently closed two of its seven production lines for an indefinite period, said company spokesman Suh Byung-hoon.
Domestic construction orders during the second quarter fell by nearly a third from a year earlier because of a soft local economy, following a 14.2 percent drop for the first quarter, according to the latest government data.
The nine days of lost output at Ssangyong is equivalent to 3 percent of its capacity of 14.5 million tonnes per year.
"It's unusual for us to do maintenance work at this time of a year," Park said. "We usually do that in winter when demand is very low, but this time, we shut the lines because cement is not selling well, hit by the bad construction demand."
The company held stocks of 250,000 tonnes of cement, which he said was higher than normal levels.
Tony Yang had no choice but to cut production because of the weak market, said Suh. "Cement becomes hard quick, so it requires special storage facilities, but we don't have enough storage," he said.
French-South Korean joint venture Lafarge-Halla Cement Corp. has shut four lines since Sept. 24 and will not restart them until Oct. 10, the Korea Economic Daily reported on Friday. Company officials were not available for comment.
The construction industry is responsible for nearly a 10th of gross domestic product in an economy grappling with depressed consumer spending. The government expects economic growth of 5 percent this year thanks to robust exports.(中國水泥網(wǎng) 轉(zhuǎn)載請注明出處)
