DESCRIPTION
China Titanium Dioxide Monthly Report provides you with real-time intelligence on Chinas titanium dioxide (TiO2) market.
Chinas titanium dioxide market is at a crossroads. As growth in the wider economy slows, Chinese TiO2 manufacturers are faced with slowing domestic demand, massive overcapacity and falling prices.
Big changes are underway as producers struggle to deal with this new normal. M&A activity is accelerating, and many companies are attempting to improve their product quality to become more competitive in the international market. Meanwhile, others are struggling to adapt to Chinas tightening environmental regulations.
China Titanium Dioxide Monthly Report will help you stay ahead of the game in this fast-changing market with real-time reporting on the entire TiO2 industry chain, from the upstream ilmenite and titanium slag markets to the downstream pigments, coatings and plastics markets. This includes:
Breaking news from China and abroad
The latest market data, including price information for raw materials, intermediates and end products, import/export data, production, consumption, operating rates, etc.
In-depth analysis of market trends, Chinese government policy, the performance of leading Chinese producers, M&A, new technologies, and more
Expert commentary from industry insiders, including regular guest articles and interviews with insiders at leading Chinese manufacturers, associations and government organizations"
Headlines
In Jan. 2017, China imported 254,014 tonnes of ilmenite, up by 6.51% MoM (vs. 238,489 tonnes in Dec. 2016). The average price of imported ilmenite jumped by 30.36% MoM to USD151.84/t from USD116.48/t in Dec. 2016.
In Jan. 2017, Chinas TiO2 export volume significantly increased and its import volume declined. The gap between import and export volume broadened to 44,597 tonnes from 29,704 tonnes in Dec. 2016, while the difference of import price and export price shrank from to USD563/t from USD669/t in Dec. 2016.
In March 2017, major manufacturers increased quoted prices of their products and heightened their operating rates during the traditional peak season of TiO2 market. In this context, the prices of high titanium slag, acid dissolved titanium slag and ilmenite maintained an upward trend.
On 16 March, 2017, Yibin Tianyuan announced plans to invest USD14.54 million (RMB100 million) in the establishment of a new subsidiary which will produce chemicals for the Li-ion battery industry. CCM believes Yibin Tianyuan is strategically branching out in several directions by expanding into the TiO2 and Li-ion battery industries.
On 15 March, 2017, CNNC TD published its financial report, revealing YoY growth of 202.56% in its operating profit in 2016. CCM believes CNNC TD turned deficits into profits due to significant increases in both its output and the price of TiO2.
In March 2017, Lomon Billions announced the acquisition of a 100% stake in Panzhihua Ruierxin with USD27.62 million in cash, a move it has taken to ease the tight supply of ilmenite for the company at present.
In March 2017, Zhuhai Yinlong stated that demand for TiO2 from the lithium titanate battery industry is gradually increasing, with the industry expected to become a new growth point for the TiO2 market in the future.
In Feb. 2017, Annada published its 2016 full-year financial report, revealing that its sales and net profit had increased substantially YoY. The key reasons for Anandas all-round improvement lie in its accurate grasp of the market and expansion of its iron phosphate business, according to CCM.
In March, several proposals and hot topics highlighting domestic industrial development, from which the TiO2 industry is expected to benefit, were put forward during the 2017 Two Sessions.
In March 2017, several major brands in the coating industry, including Carpoly Chemical, Guangdong Badeshi and SKSHU Paint, announced price rises for some of their coatings. In this context, Chinas coating industry, having been heavily pressured since 2016, is expected to embrace a trend of large-scale price increases.
