Raw material prices increase, the furniture market may be "affected"
With the rapid development of China's furniture industry in recent years, the use of wood panels has increased day by day, and the competition in the sheet metal market has become particularly fierce. In addition to the domestic plate production enterprises, foreign competitors have joined the battle group, and for a time, the "union" has stood up. Manufacturers sometimes become overwhelmed in the choice of plates; and when most unprofessional consumers face a plate market with more selective and environmentally-rated standards, it is also a fog.

Raw material price increase, domestic plate advantage may be reduced
Xiaobian learned from the plate manufacturer and some furniture and flooring companies that the recent domestic and international plates have raised prices in the same way, ranging from 10% to 40%. As one of the largest manufacturers and distributors of domestic plates, Lushui River is also regarded as the wind vane of the sheet industry. A few days ago, the reporter learned from the relevant person in charge of the factory that the price increase of the Lushuihe plate has been fixed. The company will fine-tune the price at the end of the year and will substantially adjust the price in 2011. As for the price increase, the person in charge said that it is still uncertain, and will be determined according to the standard of domestic price fluctuations. Another domestic man-made board giant, the head of Da Ya wood-based panel said in an interview that due to the rising prices of chemical raw materials, wood, hydroelectric oil and coal, and the appreciation of the renminbi, Da Ya will raise the price, “every cube will be raised. 50 to 100 yuan."
Recently, the price of imported plate prices has been rumored frequently, but at the same time, the head of one of the imported plate alliance companies told reporters in an interview. "Although imported plates are also increasing in price, we can directly from the factory in the name of the alliance. Centralized procurement, like the various group buying activities held by SouFun.com, because consumers buy a large amount, they will be discounted, and because it is a direct purchase of the factory, a lot of intermediate links are saved, and this part of the profits will be given to consumers. This way of collectively purchasing foreign plates in disguise has an incomparable price/performance advantage.
The price difference between finished products is large, or the market is “reshuffledâ€
Subsequently, Xiao Bian also came to the Red Star Macalline store in East Fourth Ring Road. As an ordinary consumer, he conducted a survey on the price of furniture of the same specification and different brands made in domestic and imported plates. . Take a 150cm×45cm×45cm full-panel TV cabinet as an example. The price difference between imported brands and domestic plates is 600 yuan to 1000 yuan for several brands. On the price base, imported TV materials are used. The cabinet is around 2,000 yuan, and the domestic board is around 1,000 yuan. Although this is a seemingly doubled appearance of the price difference of finished products, with the recent increase in the price of domestic raw materials, the way of collecting and collecting will limit the increase of imported raw materials to some extent, so It is not difficult to guess that the new round of market share competition between “domestic†and “imported†plates will slowly start.
