The general idea is something like the following joke: Day 1: Customer: Is the price of the latest shipment still the same as before? Boss: No, the price has gone up now. Customer: Why have the prices increased recently? Your goods are a bit too expensive; I’ll pass! Day 2 Customer: Can it be cheaper? We will need to work together for a long time in the future. Boss: Raw material prices have risen, and today the prices of our products have gone up too! Customer: The price goes up every day; I don’t want it anymore! Day 3: Customer: The price from the day before yesterday. If it’s possible to ship the goods, I’ll send someone over right away to sign the contract. Boss: I’m sorry, the shipping costs have gone up as well; we can’t offer the price from the day before yesterday. Customer: Done! I’ll book it right now! Sign the order now! ! ! Boss: I’m sorry, the goods are out of stock. Getting ready to go on vacation early! Customer: … Such conversations are often heard in the office. Many customers also call to inquire about the situation in the industry before placing orders on Huaguang www.huaguangv.com, waiting for the production schedule to determine when their products can be manufactured so that they can receive them as soon as possible. Why is this situation occurring in the valve industry these days? As the fourth round of central environmental inspections has recently begun, 8 inspection teams have successively arrived on site. The Second Central Environmental Protection Inspection Team and the Third Central Environmental Protection Inspection Team were stationed in Zhejiang Province and Shandong Province respectively, where mobilization meetings for the inspection work were held; the inspection period lasted one month. The situation is similar in other areas. Recently, this image has flooded everyone’s WeChat Moments! This is the true picture of the valve industry at present. With environmental regulations coming into effect, small factories are closing, large factories are undergoing maintenance and production is suspended for rectification... From now on, stop asking us about possible discounts; what you should care about is whether there’s stock available!

The concrete for our company’s construction project has been waiting for a month already: lol

A month is indeed a long time; usually, our factory doesn’t take that long to complete orders.

If it’s a valve issue, it is recommended to look into the second-hand market. At present, a considerable number of enterprises have had their equipment removed, and the idle valves should still be usable.
