International giants raise the price of titanium dioxide again

DuPont, the global titanium dioxide giant, recently announced that it would raise the price of products in the global market from October 1, by about $100 per ton. In May this year, DuPont announced to raise the price of titanium dioxide by about $200 per ton since July 1. KONOS, another titanium dioxide giant, also proposed a price increase of about $250 per ton in June. Frequent price increases by overseas giants may have a cumulative effect and cause resonance in the domestic market

according to Shanghai Securities News, DuPont, the global titanium dioxide giant, will raise product prices from October 1. In Asia Pacific and Latin America, as well as Europe, the Middle East and Africa, DuPont titanium dioxide prices in the US dollar market will be increased by 100 US dollars/ton, and in the euro market by 75 euros/ton. In May this year, DuPont announced to raise the price of titanium dioxide by about $200 per ton. In June, another titanium dioxide giant, Connors, also raised the price

although the previous two price increases by overseas giants did not cause the domestic market to rise, the industry believes that the demonstration effect of this price increase will be greater than before. There are mainly two reasons: first, the domestic titanium dioxide market is in the peak sales season, the enterprise shipments are good, and the business situation is improving; Second, the environmental protection policy is becoming stricter. It is reported that the Ministry of environmental protection is currently formulating pollution prevention policies for the titanium dioxide industry, and the national development and Reform Commission is also formulating energy consumption standards for the titanium dioxide industry, which is conducive to controlling production capacity supply

in the domestic market, due to the entering of the peak sales season, the titanium dioxide powder appearance has warmed up. In the past week, some enterprises have raised prices by 200 to 300106 stoneware tiles per ton. At present, the tax inclusive ex factory price of rutile titanium dioxide in China is 13000 to 14500 yuan/ton, and the tax inclusive ex factory price of anatase titanium dioxide is 11200 to 12500 yuan/ton. In terms of enterprises, the business form improved significantly in the third quarter, and the shipment volume increased significantly

since this year, glyphosate, dyes, spandex and other strong chemical products have followed the logic of rising prosperity brought about by shrinking supply and stable downstream demand, which is expected to be repeated in the titanium dioxide industry. Specifically, the tightening of environmental protection policies has been gradually reflected. The illegal emission of pollutants in Chongqing titanium industry has been exposed. The concern about the experimental power has aroused great concern in the market, resulting in the shutdown of some production capacity. At present, the Ministry of environmental protection is formulating pollution prevention policies for the titanium dioxide industry, and the national development and Reform Commission is specializing in the production of concrete pressure test mechanism in Jinan new era Gold Testing Instrument Co., Ltd. to set energy consumption standards for the titanium dioxide industry. In the future, the introduction of environmental protection policies will further tighten supply. On the other hand, the market demand also showed new highlights. In addition to the traditional coating application, the demand for catalysts brought by flue gas denitration and tail gas treatment also began to rise. The Agency predicted that it would bring 422400 tons of new demand for titanium dioxide, effectively alleviating the contradiction between supply and demand of titanium dioxide

on the whole, due to the production restriction of manufacturers and the tightening of environmental protection policies, the supply and demand pattern of titanium dioxide industry has improved, and the demonstration effect brought by the price increase of overseas giants, there is still room for domestic titanium dioxide prices to increase

clamps also have requirements for strength
