The provincial average price of natural sand (medium-coarse sand) was 102.90 yuan/ton, up 0.20% from the previous month and down 9.18% year-on-year; the provincial average price of machine-made sand was 70.47 yuan/ton, up 0.10% from the previous month and down 2.46% year-on-year.

Crushed stone prices continued to decline. The provincial average price of crushed stone with a particle size of 5 to 16mm was 67.59 yuan/ton, down 0.04% from the previous month; the provincial average price of crushed stone with a particle size of 17 to 31.5mm was 70.02 yuan/ton, down 0.64% from the previous month. The provincial average prices of 42.5 strength ordinary Portland cement, 42.5 strength slag Portland cement, and 52.5 strength ordinary Portland cement were 361.03 yuan/ton, 363.06 yuan/ton, and 440.21 yuan/ton, respectively.

Overall, the weak demand fundamentals of the sand, gravel, cement, and concrete industry chain in Hubei Province have not yet reversed. Only the sand and gravel category shows slight signs of stabilization, while most building material categories remain under pressure and weak. The future market trend will depend critically on the acceleration of major provincial infrastructure projects and the progress of concentrated launches of affordable housing and urban renewal projects. The China Sand and Stone Association is scheduled to hold the 13th Sand and Aggregate Industry Science and Technology Innovation Conference in Tianshui, Gansu from July 15 to 16, 2026.
