At the same time, in the early stage, focusing on strategic functions, urban operation guarantee, epidemic prevention materials, continuous production, basic supporting and other fields, more than 3,000 "whitelist" enterprises in three batches were promoted to resume work and production, and the overall work resumption rate exceeded 70%, of which 666 enterprises were the first bat.

In addition, many parts of the country have lifted the global lockdown and have begun to gradually resume work, which has also led to the gradual recovery of industries such as biomedicine, chemical materials, and logistics and warehousing, and has promoted the logistics industry to usher in a "little sprin.

For chemical companies, the problem of "the raw materials cannot be transported in and the products cannot be transported" under the influence of the epidemic has finally been alleviat.

The explosive growth of logistics

According to the press conference of Shanghai New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Workers on May 19, recently, the daily container throughput of Shanghai Port has reached 119,000 TEUs, returning to 90% of the normal level; the daily cargo throughput of Pudong Airport has exceeded 7,000 ton, recovered to the level of 70%; the number of freight vehicles entering and leaving Shanghai through the provincial border crossing of the expressway has reached 78,000 in a single day, returning to two-thirds of the normal lev.

At the same time, transportation in many parts of the country has also recover.

According to the monitoring and summary data of the State Council's Leading Group Office of Logistics Guaranteeing and Guaranteeing Work, on May 23, the national freight logistics continued to recover and improved, among which:

The national railway transported 1245 million tons of goods, basically the same as the previous month; 1004 million trucks passed through the national highways, an increase of 121% month-on-month; the national key ports completed a cargo throughput of 3911 million tons, a month-on-month increase of 5%, and completed a container throughput of 712,000 TEUs , down 2% month-on-month; civil aviation guaranteed 647 cargo flights, down 11% month-on-month; postal express collection was about 333 million pieces, up 8% month-on-month; delivery was about 316 million pieces, up 6% month-on-mon.

With the concentrated start of the manufacturing industry, the order volume of raw material suppliers has ushered in a rapid grow.

It is understood that in the process of resuming work and production, many companies still face problems such as material supply interruption, transportation obstacles, and employee mobility difficulti.

Will it lead to a rush?

According to industry insiders, logistics in the Pearl River Delta region are currently normal, and trucks are relatively sufficie.

However, there are still queues at many major domestic ports including Qingdao and Shangh.

A company said that in the past, the time from domestic transportation of goods to overseas delivery was mostly 30 days, but now it has become 60 days.

In the era of "more monks and less porridge" when the transportation capacity is tight, the transportation time of goods will be prolonged, and the increase in freight costs will also be a matter of cour.

Customs data shows that since late April, Shanghai port cargo volume and foreign trade import and export value have gradually recover.

Chemical companies have also expressed their concer.

Customers will only place new orders after receiving the goo.

At present, the delivery cycle is prolonged, and the shipment volume has dropped by about 30% compared with the same period last year, which has brought a great impact on the operation of the compa.

According to industry insiders, the "unblocking tide" has promoted the "rush for transportation", which ultimately pushed up the cost of products togeth.

It is expected that the peak of enterprise shipments from the end of May to the beginning of June will collide with the peak of capacity grabbing, and there will be situations where freight rates will double, spot product prices will soar, and there will even be cases where money cannot be shipp.

As the first half of the year is coming to an end, the traditional peak shipping season in the third quarter will also continue this trend of tightening prices, and the pressure on the chemical industry supply chain will continue unabat.
