Economic develop V.S enviroment pollution in stone industrial

Last July, Anxi county closed all the factories and quarry in his area, we are disappoint to find that we can’t get the G635, because no block. Coming to 2011, another popular granite, G603 granite will be disappear again.

The Jinjiang local government have a meeting and make the final decision, Most of the factories, almost 99% of them should closed before August 2012.  It was said there are over 600 factories in Jinjiang area, and about 120 of them are in the industrial zoon. Recently if the factories do not in the industrial zoon, the cost of electric power is ￥0.45/KWH  than others.

The following there are some statistics of the Jinjiang stone industrial

1.    Total quantity of factory:  617

2.    Annual output: 1.6 billion Yuan RMB

3.    Tax: 110 million Yuan RMB

4.    The quantity of staff:  about forty thousand

There are mainly three towns, which the economic depends on this industrial, if all of the factory close, how to live and find a new work for the local people will be a very big problem, and for the government, there will be no income in the next few year.

When Economic development meets environment pollution, ten years ago, the government chose the economic, while now we come back to environment, it is hard to comment which is correct. But next year, we will lose a very popular granite, G603 granite.

International stone market

Major stone market analysis
 

    The international stone markets include: Japan, U.S., EU (European) market and the Middle East market. Below we will introduce several specific characteristics of the different market

 

First: Japan

Stone building materials market in Japan is divided into two categories: Wholesale market and project demand

1.    The wholesale market for the standard plate

The wholesale market always sell the normal and easy finish style, most of the small factories can meet the demand, so the market is competition, profits have been minimal.

2.    The stone for the project

Quality requirement is very strict when everything deals with the projects.  Do not accept the order if your quality can not meet the demand of Japan, or your factory will close. Even you can do well at 99%. If you can not  do well 100%, the Japanese will ask for compensate more than 100%.

Second:  American Stone Market
   

 American stone market is divided into three categories:

1.    Big slab market

2.    Countertop and vanity top market

3.    Stone project

Big slab market is a very huge stone market, the local people cut them according to the customers’ special demand. Mainly for home floor, step and countertop.

Countertop and vanity top  is very special in American, because they are standard. American like everything easy and can produce in a large scale, the countertop in one of them.

American like nature color, so for project is much easy than Japan, but you need to meet them first, so that you will have the opportunity to get the project. Go to America to visit the fair to invite them to visit factory is two of the good idea.
 

 Third: European Stone Market
   

European stone market is similar with Japan market, and can be divided into wholesale market and the project market.    

Let’s go to projects market directly because the wholesale is no much different with Japan.  European company always buy the stone from Italy, because Italy is famous with the good quality sculpture. In recently because the economic is not good, and Italy manufacture capital can not meet the demand, so more and more turn to China market.

Take care of the size and design, keep the products nature color,  I think you can finish the order well.

Fourth in the Middle East Stone Market

Oil, yes because Oil, so Middle east market is very special. You can sell the very low price and bad quality with large quantity to this market, but low profit. If you want to get good project, you need to have office there, The local people work go slowly, and if you can do them by yourself, it would be very good for them. So Set a office there, and take your worker worker there, you can find a very big market.
