Shipbuilding enterprises were enthusiastic about production this month. Medium and large-scale enterprises were basically in full operation, while operations at small-scale enterprises were relatively poor. The volume of new orders also increased month-on-month. Orders at some large domestic shipping companies have been scheduled until after 2026-2028. New orders were mainly driven by clean energy power ships. In addition, the orders of cruise ships also increased significantly. Raw material prices inched higher, and shipbuilders restocked mostly as needed.
