Shandong is an important steel industry production base and export province in China, with a strong industrial foundation and a complete industrial chain. It has key steel industry clusters such as Rizhao, Linyi, Laiwu, and Tai'an. In recent years, Shandong's steel industry has adhered to the direction of high-end, intelligent, and green development, continuously optimized production capacity layout, improved product quality, vigorously developed high value-added products such as high-strength steel, high-quality sheet metal, and special steel, and achieved high-quality development of steel exports.
According to statistics from Qingdao Customs, in the first two months of this year, Shandong exported steel worth 11.14 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 32.7%, maintaining a continuous growth trend.
Entering the intelligent control center of Rizhao Iron and Steel Holding Group Co., Ltd., the computer screen displays more than 100 real-time data such as temperature, flame intensity, oxygen lance vibration amplitude, and flue gas composition analysis in the blast furnace. By relying on technological breakthroughs such as data control, enterprises continuously optimize product quality and strictly control production costs. As of now, the world's thinnest 0.6mm hot-rolled steel plate and the world's largest market share of container weather resistant steel have been born here.
The company has invested billions of yuan in research and development in the past five years, and the integrated innovation and application technology achievements of ESP technology have reached the international leading level. The product strip ratio exceeds 85%, and the international market share of ESP automotive steel products that are low-carbon, environmentally friendly, high-strength, high-precision, and customizable is gradually increasing. ”Wang Gang, the head of the technical department of Rizhao Iron and Steel Group, introduced.
In order to support the high-quality development of the steel industry, Qingdao Customs has coordinated the guarantee of raw material imports and export services for finished products, implemented convenient measures such as appointment clearance and loading at the same time of arrival, improved customs clearance efficiency, and reduced logistics costs. At the same time, we will deepen the cultivation of AEO enterprise certification, carry out precise assistance, strengthen policy interpretation and compliance guidance, help enterprises improve their credit rating, break through international market access barriers, and further expand the international market.
With the continuous deepening of the transformation and upgrading of the steel industry and the steady promotion of diversified layout in the international market, the export potential of Shandong steel will be further released, "said Chen Shigong, Deputy Director of Rizhao Customs. With the steady expansion of export scale and the continuous increase in the proportion of high value-added products, Shandong's steel industry will inject strong" steel kinetic energy "into improving the quality and efficiency of foreign trade.
