From September 17 to September 22, 2020, "Ceramic Information" "Ceramic Industry Long March" lasted 6 days to complete the survey and statistics of ceramic tile production capacity in Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces.
The ceramics industry in Heilongjiang Province is mainly concentrated in Yi'an Economic Development Zone, Yi'an County, Qiqihar City. There are currently 5 ceramic construction companies with 7 production lines, with a daily production capacity of 97,100 square meters and 816 employees. Currently, 3 lines are in normal production. Among the main products, there are 2 porcelain tile lines with a daily production capacity of 60,000 square meters; 1 glazed tile line with a daily production capacity of 30,000 square meters; 2 square tile lines with a daily production capacity of 6,000 square meters; 2 exterior wall tile lines with a daily production capacity of 0.6 million square meters 0.11 million square meters. Thanks to the Yi'an County Party Committee and County Government's long-standing attitude of protecting and attaching importance to ceramic production enterprises, compared with the basic data in 2017, the overall scale of Yi'an's ceramic industry has increased slightly.
The ceramics industry in Jilin Province is declining at an accelerated pace. Research data shows that there are currently only 3 ceramic tile production companies in Jilin Province, with 5 lines built. During the normal production season, only 1 line is in normal production. Huadian Haokui Ceramics, which was still selling and operating normally during the "Long March of the Ceramic Industry" in 2017, has now completely gone bankrupt; Jilin Yatai Tile Industry, a leading enterprise in the production of ceramic tiles, has changed its name to Huadian Hantile Technology Co., Ltd. After that, it is still in a state of suspension and waiting to be reopened, and the actual number of employees in Jilin's construction and ceramics enterprises is less than 100.
Huadian, Jilin:
Market and Environmental Protection
The Jian Ceramics Industrial Park has almost become a ghost town
As an important basic raw material for the ceramic industry, the potash feldspar reserves in Huadian City, Jilin Province rank first in the country. Since 2002, the Huadian Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have decided to rely on resource advantages to vigorously develop the ceramic manufacturing industry. Later, Huadian Economic Development Zone, which enjoyed special policy support from the provincial government, undertook this work. After several plans, Huadian Ceramics Industrial Park has become one of the ten key industrial parks in Jilin City, Jilin Province.
Ambitious “Garden Building Plan”
60 production lines were planned
According to a public information, the construction of Huadian Ceramics Industrial Park is divided into three stages. The first stage is to 2010, in order to occupy the low-end and mid-range ceramic markets in Jilin, Heilongjiang, Inner Mongolia and other ceramic markets, and plan to build 30 new production lines, with a total capacity of 40 production lines, forming an annual production capacity of 100 million square meters of construction ceramic products.
The second stage is by 2015, with the goal of occupying the Northeast and radiating the national market, planning to add 20 more production lines, bringing the total to 60 production lines, and forming an annual production capacity of 150 million square meters of building ceramic products.
Third levelThe goal is to further expand the sales market to the entire Northeast Asian countries by 2020, and strive to reach an annual export volume of 30 million square meters and an export volume of US$80 million, gradually becoming one of the important bases for ceramic supply in Northeast Asian countries. Build Jilin Huadian Ceramics Industrial Park into a modern ceramics industrial park and create a famous "Northern Porcelain Capital" at home and abroad.
As around 2008, a number of companies such as Hongyi Ceramics, Haokui Ceramics, Haocheng Ceramics, Huizhi Ceramics, and Yatai Tile Industry settled in Huadian, as well as more than ten large and small ceramic tile factories in Baishan and other places. With its establishment, the construction and ceramics industry in Jilin Province has officially entered the fast lane of development.
Only one line in Jilin Province is producing normally
The blueprint is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. In September 2020, when the "Ceramic Industry Long March" investigation team visited Huadian Economic Development Zone again, the most intuitive feeling was that it was so deserted. On the wide, flat streets, few transport vehicles passed by for more than half an hour.
At the Huizhi Ceramics and Hongyi Ceramics factory sites, the factory buildings and equipment had been demolished many years ago. Huadian Haokui Ceramics, which was still selling and operating during the 2017 "Ceramics Long March", has now completely gone bankrupt and the person in charge of the company is behind bars. In Huadian Han Tile Technology Co., Ltd. (formerly Huadian Yatai Tile Industry), the silent production workshop shows that production here has been suspended for more than a year.
"Nowadays, the market situation is not good, and environmental protection is so strict. The building and ceramics industry is no longer the hot and spicy industry that it was 10 years ago with green lights and strong promotion from many parties. Under the double attack of the market and environmental protection, enterprises have reached the point where they are overwhelmed. , The situation is unsustainable,” said a company official who did not want to be named.
In the Huadian Economic Development Zone, I finally met a company that is still producing - Huadian Haocheng Ceramics. The person in charge of the company introduced that the company's main business is walking tiles. Compared with other ceramic tiles, it is more regional. So sales are pretty good. However, limited by logistics conditions and increasingly strict environmental protection policies, if you want to further develop, you will also face many difficulties and problems.
From the great success of 10 years ago to the present, no one cares about why Huadian ceramics industry has suffered like this. The above-mentioned ceramic enterprises believe that from the perspective of enterprises, these enterprises are currently in production technology and energy use. It is no longer possible to meet the requirements of current environmental protection policies. Under the continuous high-pressure environmental protection situation, it is difficult for these enterprises to maintain a foothold in the traditional low-level production methods.
Secondly, although the Huadian ceramic industry started early, due to many reasons, it has not formed the scale effect like Liaoning Faku and Liaoning Jianping production areas. It lacks the advantages of industrial clusters and intensified competition has led to the market radiation of local enterprises. Increasing abilityThe worse. "There is no money to improve environmental protection. If environmental protection is not passed, we will not be able to start work. If we can't start work, we will have no money. The ceramic industry in Jilin has entered a vicious cycle of dead ends." said the person in charge of the above-mentioned ceramic enterprise.
Heilongjiang Yi'an:
Create the “Porcelain Capital of the North”
Plan to introduce 1-2 more sanitary ceramics companies
Yi'an Economic Development Zone in Qiqihar City, Heilongjiang Province was established in 2005. It is located 5 kilometers south of Yi'an County and at the intersection of Yiming Highway and Nianbei Highway, with a total planned area of 28 square kilometers. In May 2012, with the approval of the Heilongjiang Provincial Government, Yi'an Ceramics Industrial Park enjoyed provincial development zone policy support.
Xiao Li, deputy director of the Management Committee of Yi'an Economic Development Zone, introduced in an interview with "Ceramic Information" that Yi'an has currently planned and constructed a 28-square-kilometer provincial ceramic industry demonstration base, and the base infrastructure has achieved "seven "Tongyiping", the industrial supporting facilities are becoming increasingly complete, and 16 enterprises including architectural ceramics, daily ceramics, artistic ceramics and supporting enterprises have settled in, initially forming a cluster development trend.
It is understood that in 2019, all enterprises in Yi'an Economic Development Zone paid actual taxes of 92.47 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15.1%. Among them, Sanshang enterprises, represented by ceramic enterprises, paid actual taxes of 91.74 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15.7%. %. From January to July this year, in the face of the sudden pressure of the epidemic, Yi'an Economic and Technological Development Zone completed a total industrial output value of 1.35 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1.5%, achieving growth against the trend. The "Porcelain Capital of the North" is rising on the banks of the Wuyur River.
In January 2006, Pan Yan, who has been engaged in economic work for many years, was appointed director of the Yi'an County Industrial Park Management Committee. Pan Yan, currently a member of the Standing Committee of the Yi'an County Party Committee, is deeply moved by the fact that this city has grown from a blank piece of paper to an increasingly prosperous industrial city.
In 2011, after many inspections, Mr. Lin Lianlian, a businessman from Hong Kong, invested 167 million yuan to build Qiqihar Mulongwang Porcelain Co., Ltd. in Yi'an, becoming the first ceramics manufacturer to settle in the Yi'an Industrial Park. The prelude to the development of the ceramics industry in Yi'an. In 2012, Mulongwang was officially put into production. Its main product is exterior wall split bricks. Later, through the development of general manager Wei Jiangyao, footpath bricks with very good water permeability became the company's flagship product. Since there is no competition from similar products within a radius of 500 kilometers, plus At the climax of the construction of third- and fourth-tier cities, once the sidewalk bricks produced by Mulongwang were put on the market, demand exceeded supply and became a hot commodity in markets everywhere.
Nowadays, under the operation of Wei Jiangyao, the original Mulongwang Porcelain Industry has been reorganized into Zhongrun Porcelain Industry and has completed the acquisition of Yi'an Baijiaju Ceramics. The newly built Yi'an Fumei soft porcelain new material project will be launched in the spring of next year. The conditions for formal production are met.
Pan Yan said that in view of the increasingly severe environmental protection situation, Yi'an Economic Development Zone adheres to the principles of being small, refined, strong and comprehensive, encourages existing enterprises to speed up the pace of technological transformation and brand creation, and encourages enterprises to When conditions permit, we will steadily advance the expansion and construction of new production lines and gradually enhance the company's comprehensive strength and comprehensive competitiveness. In terms of attracting investment, Xiao Li said that unless it is an enterprise with a strong industrial demonstration effect and regional pulling effect in the industry, such projects will no longer be attracted in principle. "The park plans to recruit 1-2 more sanitary ceramics production companies to achieve full coverage of the construction sanitary ceramics industry chain.
