3. Enterprises have difficulty in collecting funds, leading to capital pressure.

4. The contradiction of industrial structure is outstanding.

5. Product quality and service should be further improved.

Ⅲ. Prospect of the building materials machinery industry

In 2020, the pressure on the building materials machinery industry has been further increased. Market shrinkage and profit decline are still the main problems besetting the development of the industry. Especially, in the face of the sudden outbreak of novel coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19), both the industry and enterprises have suffered huge pressure. For example, a sharp slowdown in market demand, production, sales and logistics, as well as weak export, limited raw material procurement and supply after work resumption, insufficient workforce, shortage of funds, etc., have exerted a great impact on the economy of the industry this year.

However, with a number of support and assistance policies released by relevant national and local government departments, the difficulties brought by the epidemic on the production and operation of enterprises have been alleviated, which have contributed to boosting the growth of the market and enterprises.

Due to the epidemic, the economy of the building materials machinery industry has fluctuated greatly during the first half of 2020, and has gradually stabilized in the second half. If the COVID-19 epidemic can be ended at an early date, indicators such as main business income, total profits and others may embrace a slight growth.
