Since the beginning of the year, the market for magnesium refractory raw materials in Liaoning has been declining, and so far there are no signs of stopping. At the beginning of 2019, the production of magnesite in haicheng gradually increased, and the increasing inventory led to the decrease of prices. Due to poor demand of both domestic and foreign market, the price of fused magnesia has been lowered several times from the beginning of the year to present, down by 500-800 yuan/ton. Its products magnesia carbon bricks are affected by it, and the market price is also declining. Although the response is a little behind, it is difficult to escape the fate of price cuts.
The tax reduction began on April 1. For magnesia carbon brick companies, the cost reduction also means a drop in prices.This was originally a good thing for the company. Unfortunately, the market is not strong, and the downstream demand is small. The market price of magnesia carbon bricks can only be lowered with the price reduction trend of the raw materials market.At present, the sales of magnesia carbon bricks continue to be sluggish, and the transaction is relatively light.
At present, the price of magnesium-carbon brick 12A in Liaoning is priced at 5700-6700 yuan/ton, and the price of magnesium-carbon brick 14A is 6700-7700 yuan/ton, which is 300-500 yuan/ton lower than before. The first reason is that the price of raw materials is lowered, and the second is the reduction of tax points.
