DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/19a932/global_and_china_t) has announced the addition of the "Global and China Titanium Dioxide Industry Report, 2010-2015" report to their offering.
Over the past decade, the global titanium dioxide industry has maintained stable development on the whole. Affected by the financial crisis, the capacity of titanium dioxide shrank around the world in 2008. However, driven by the recovery of paint, papermaking, plastic and other application industries in the downstream, the titanium dioxide industry has witnessed robust growth since the end of the second quarter of 2009.
In 2010, the titanium dioxide global market was in tight supply and the market price rocketed. Therefore, China's titanium dioxide began to present its price advantage in the international market and the export volume significantly increased. This led to the short supply and soaring price of titanium dioxide and the capital increase and production expansion of titanium dioxide enterprises in China. The total output of domestic titanium dioxide hit a historical record of 1,472,000 tons in 2010, up 425,000 tons compared with 2009, with a growth rate of 40.8%. Meanwhile, the capacity of titanium dioxide in China reached 2,300,000 tons in 2010.
Since 2010, both the Chinese and world economy began to witness stability and recovery. However, if the world economy falls into a double-dip recession, the market price of titanium dioxide may again experience irrational fluctuations.
Shandong Dongjia
With capacity of 160,000 tons of titanium dioxide per year, the company produces more than 10 types of rutile titanium dioxide and titanium dioxide for chemical fiber including SR-235S, R-235, SR-235, SR-235 and BA01-01. In 2010, Shandong Dongjia Group produced 116,000 tons of titanium dioxide, attaining year-on-year growth of 19.65%, and achieved sales revenue of RMB 1.443 billion, up 28.34% YoY. Between 2004 and 2010, the Group ranked first in terms of both output and sales volume of titanium dioxide in China for seven consecutive years.
Henan Billions
In 2010, its export volume of titanium dioxide reached 51,900 tons, ranking first in China for three consecutive years. Billions mainly produced high value-added rutile titanium dioxide instead of anatase type in 2010.
Sichuan Lomon
The company can produce 80,000 tons of rutile titanium dioxide per year and its main products are R996 and other high-end general-grade rutile titanium dioxide. From 2007 to 2010, Sichuan Lomon had been expanding its capacity of titanium dioxide, and its output grew to 100,700 tons in 2010 from 63,800 tons in 2007, with a CAGR of 16.43%.
