The inevitable development direction of green and high-quality steel enterprises
Author:
Since, with the rise of steel prices, the steel market as a whole has shown the characteristics of "high profit, high output, high inventory and low demand". March began to enter the traditional consumption peak season, and large-scale infrastructure investment projects around the country are poised to launch, forming a strong support for steel prices; However, due to the uncertainty of downstream demand release and the "double-edged sword" effect of environmental protection and production restriction, downstream demand is also difficult to release significantly; The safety and environmental protection policies continue to be increased, the "2+26" urban steel industry has all implemented special emission limits, and the steel production limit in some key regions has been extended. The release of crude steel production continues to be limited, and the expectation of substantial growth has been significantly weakened.
Since, with the rise of steel prices, the steel market as a whole has shown the characteristics of "high profit, high output, high inventory and low demand". March began to enter the traditional consumption peak season, and large-scale infrastructure investment projects around the country are poised to launch, forming a strong support for steel prices; However, due to the uncertainty of downstream demand release and the "double-edged sword" effect of environmental protection and production restriction, downstream demand is also difficult to release significantly; The safety and environmental protection policies continue to be increased, the "2+26" urban steel industry has all implemented special emission limits, and the steel production limit in some key regions has been extended. The release of crude steel production continues to be limited, and the expectation of substantial growth has been significantly weakened.
"In the current state of high profitability, iron and steel enterprises should strive to improve the quality and efficiency of development, better meet the higher requirements of the society for the quality, life, safety, environmental protection and practicality of steel products, and adhere to green development and high-quality development is the inevitable path for enterprises." Wang Dayong, vice president and secretary general of Hebei Metallurgical Industry Association, said in an interview.
Major benefit indicators increased significantly and exports decreased
In January-February, the main business income of the iron and steel industry in Hebei Province reached 15.6106 billion yuan, up 5.03% year on year, accounting for 27.67% of the main business income of the province's industry; The profit reached 9.84 billion yuan, up 53.76% year on year, accounting for 30.47% of the provincial industrial profit.
In January-February, the profit margin of the main business of the iron and steel industry in the province was 6.31%, up 2.00 percentage points year on year. The three expenses of the iron and steel industry in the province totaled 6.888 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 28.86%, including sales expenses of 1.090 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 15.10%, administrative expenses of 3.381 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 43.50%, and financial expenses of 2.417 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 18.30%. The three expenses per 100 yuan of main business income were 4.4 yuan, up 0.82 yuan year-on-year. The asset-liability ratio was 65.48%, down 1.51 percentage points year on year.
"The substantial increase in benefits is mainly due to the overall situation of supply and demand in the industry is still good. From the overall situation, the economy has started well this year, the downstream steel industry continues to grow, and the demand for steel continues to grow." Wang Dayong said.
In January-February, the province exported 1.7738 million tons of steel, with an export value of 1.266 billion US dollars (the export price of per ton of steel was 713.55 US dollars), down 55.06% and 32.87% respectively compared with the same period last year. The quantity and amount of steel exports in the province accounted for 18.68% and 14.93% of the country respectively.
From January to February, the cumulative number of steel exports of Hebei Province ranked first; The export amount ranks third, lower than Jiangsu Province and Shandong Province.
Take innovation as the first driving force for high-quality development
Recently, the list of the first pilot units of Hebei Manufacturing Innovation Center was announced. Among the six selected units, the "Hebei Iron and Steel Industry Intelligent Manufacturing Innovation Center" and "Hebei Vanadium and Titanium New Material Manufacturing Innovation Center" led by Hegang were listed.
This is another achievement of Hegang in the construction of scientific and technological innovation platform. Hebei Iron and Steel Industry Intelligent Manufacturing Innovation Center will take the long-process iron and steel metallurgical process as the basic research object, and improve the enterprise intelligent manufacturing level with the help of advanced detection technology, robot technology, big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, etc. Hebei Vanadium-titanium New Material Manufacturing Industry Innovation Center will further improve the technological innovation level and industrial application capacity of Vanadium-titanium, expand the new fields of Vanadium-titanium material application, build a number of Vanadium-titanium resource clean utilization and Vanadium-titanium high-end material production and preparation demonstration projects, and promote the extension of Vanadium-titanium industry chain, the rise of emerging industries and the upgrading and transformation of traditional industries.
"Represented by Hegang Group, the iron and steel enterprises in our province are taking innovation as the first driving force for high-quality development of enterprises," Wang Dayong said. Only innovation can achieve high-quality development. Under the current situation, innovation has become a torrent and a powerful force to promote the healthy development of enterprises. Innovation is the only way to realize the transformation and upgrading of the iron and steel industry in our province and build a strong iron and steel province. We should promote the deep integration of the Internet, big data, artificial intelligence and steel manufacturing, and promote the intelligent manufacturing of the iron and steel industry; Accelerate the construction of the innovation system, give full play to the leading role of the innovation platform, and build sustainable innovation capacity; Accelerate the construction of innovation system and mechanism, create a policy environment to promote innovation, and stimulate the vitality and motivation of enterprise innovation; Aiming at the increasing product demand of downstream industries, increase innovation investment and continuously improve the independent innovation ability of enterprises.
As a professional and serialized section steel production base and the first section steel standard research and development base in China, Jinxi Co., Ltd. continuously innovates metallurgical standardization work, and has participated in drafting and partially led the revision of more than 50 national (industrial) and local standards, effectively improving the core competitiveness of the enterprise. A few days ago, Jinxi participated in the drafting of GB/T34199-2017 Hot-rolled H-beam for OCS Pole of Electrified Railway, which was officially released and will be implemented on June 1, 2018, marking that Jinxi's voice and influence in the field of section steel have been further improved, and the level of standardized management has reached a new level.
"This standard is based on the in-depth study of the actual construction requirements of the overhead contact system pillar of the electrified railway and the common H-beam specifications, and according to the higher requirements of the rapid construction of the electrified railway on the strength, impact resistance, fatigue performance, etc. of the overhead contact system pillar, the industry standard is upgraded to the national standard. In view of the harsh environment such as sandstorm, severe cold, icing and so on, the design and development of large size, ultra-thickness, high strength, low temperature resistance hot-rolled H-beam Steel is of great significance to meet the future development needs of China's high-speed railway. " Wang Dayong introduced.
Take green development as the main direction
The report of the 19th CPC National Congress pointed out that we should build an environmental governance system with the government as the leading role, enterprises as the main body, and social organizations and the public participating. As the main body of the environmental governance system, enterprises should vigorously promote green manufacturing, reduce the intensity of pollutant emissions and carbon emissions, achieve cleaner production, and make new contributions to the fight against the blue sky.
"Most of the iron and steel enterprises in our province are located in cities. Steel mills should make full use of the characteristics of the industry, give full play to the role of social resources absorption of iron and steel, actively provide social services for the city, and achieve harmonious and harmonious development with the city," Wang Dayong said. The whole industry should actively participate in the fight against pollution, accelerate the advancement of advanced, applicable, mature and reliable energy-saving and environmental protection engineering technology transformation, and ensure that the energy consumption fully meets the national quota standards and the main pollution sources fully meet the emission standards; We will continue to organize and carry out key and common technology research on energy conservation and environmental protection, break the technical bottleneck, and improve the level of energy conservation and emission reduction technology.
"It is particularly important to note that on March 8, US President Trump signed an order, believing that the import of steel and aluminum products threatened the national security of the United States, and decided to impose a comprehensive tax on the import of steel and aluminum products, with a tax rate of 25% and 10% respectively. The steel trade has become a serious disaster area of Sino-US trade friction in recent years. Before the US investigation of steel 232, dozens of anti-dumping and countervailing measures have been taken against more than a dozen categories of products, covering almost all of them Large categories of steel products, and the high tax rate range is close to prohibitive tariffs. To firmly respond to the challenges of the United States, we need the whole industry to take action and unswervingly realize the green development and high-quality development of the steel industry in the process of structural adjustment, transformation and upgrading. " Wang Dayong said.
