The decline of granite stone and products in Shandong Port in the first quarter

In the first 4 months, Shandong Port exported 390,000 tons of granite stone products and products worth US$78.48 million, down 22% and 6.6% respectively compared with the same period of last year. South Korea and the EU are major export markets. In the first four months, Shandong Port exported 179,000 tons of granite stone products and products to South Korea, down 34.8%; exports to the EU 160,000 tons, down 4%.

The total exports to the above two markets accounted for more than 80% of the total exports in the same period. Granite products are the main products for export. In the first four months, the export of granite products was 350,000 tons, a decrease of 21.4%. Stone exports were 40,000 tons, down 26.5%. Since China canceled the export tax rebate for granite stone in 2006, the export of granite stone has been sharply reduced. Domestic stone production enterprises have adjusted their product structure, and granite products dominated the export. In the first four months, the proportion of granite products in exports was 89.6%, an increase of 2.2 percentage points over the previous year.

Affected by the international financial crisis, the international real estate market was the first to be impacted, and the number of new houses was significantly reduced. The demand for granite stone and products, which are mainly used as building materials, has shrunk significantly. Taking Korea, a major exporter, as an example, due to the sharp depreciation of the Korean won, some Korean stone import companies went bankrupt, and many stone export contracts could not be implemented, directly causing a sharp drop in exports to South Korea. In order to cope with the financial crisis, China has introduced a number of stimulus policies and increased investment in infrastructure construction. The expansion of the domestic market for granite stone products has brought new development space for stone processing enterprises.

Granite stone is a non-renewable resource. China's stone production enterprises generally have problems such as backward production technology, low utilization rate of stone materials, serious damage to ecological environment, and excessive proportion of low-end products.

To this end, Customs officials suggest that we should continue to increase the standard management of the domestic stone industry, severely punish barbaric mining, waste resources, and damage the environment, guide enterprises to improve production processes, increase the added value of export products, and achieve scientific development of granite stone production; At the same time, increase the production and export monitoring of granite stone products and products, and give priority to the domestic market demand.
