Market demand and characteristics of steel plate and wire rod processing
Threaded steel is one of the largest steel products in China. It is mainly used in the construction of real estate, bridges, roads and other civil engineering projects. It is closely related to the investment of infrastructure construction. From the comparison chart of the supply of screw steel and wire rod resources and the growth rate of investment after 2005, it can be seen that, in addition to the impact of the world financial crisis in 2008, the growth rate of screw steel and wire rod has dropped significantly (the first is that the output value of steel mills dropped sharply in the second half of 2008), the growth rate of the supply of screw steel and wire rod resources and the growth rate of fixed assets investment have been increased. Close related connections. Especially after the outbreak of the world financial crisis in 2008, driven by domestic investment demand, the demand for construction steel increased, the output value of rebar and wire rod increased more than that of the same period.
The sale of thread steel in China is mainly based on the circulation of shopping malls. According to the data calculated by the China Steel Association, in 2010-2013, 64.8% - 67.3% of the products sold by key steel enterprises through the circulation channel, the share of direct supply is only about 20%. If considering that most of the branch sales of steel mills are mainly in the market circulation, the share of the circulation of the rebar market is close to 80%.
Steel plate processing

Similar to the rebar, the main wire rod in our country is also the market circulation. According to the data calculated by the China Steel Association, the main products sold by the steel enterprises through the circulation channel accounted for 52% - 55.3% in 2010-2013, and the direct supply share was 30.7-32.8%, slightly higher than that of the rebar. Because the screw steel and wire rod primarily in the market circulation and regional sales characteristics, steel plant pricing first refers to the policy of spot market prices, pricing cycle is short, to close to the market price-based.
