China Titanium Dioxide Monthly Report provides you with real-time intelligence on China's titanium dioxide (TiO2) market. China's 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 China's 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

Welcome to the June Issue of Titanium Dioxide China Monthly Report

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.

 Editor's Note:

  • In June 2024, China's TiO2 market basically entered the traditional slack season, with demand getting weaker. TiO2 producers lowered their ex-works quotations of TiO2; specifically, rutile TiO2 prices dropped by USD70.34-USD182.88/t (RMB500-RMB1,300/t); anatase TiO2 prices fell by USD70.34-USD140.67/t (RMB500-RMB1,000/t).
  • In June, ilmenite producers were cautious about taking orders and they were determined to hold high prices. As a result, some orders were in a standoff and prices also maintained stability.
  • In Jan.-May 2024, domestic high titanium slag output increased by 9.59% YoY; output of acid dissolved titanium slag grew by 60.33% YoY.

Important market dynamics in June 2023

  • On June 25, 2024, the completion ceremony of the TiO2 (phase II) and 200,000 t/a pyrite-based sulphuric acid project of Guangxi Xilong Chemical Co., Ltd. was held.
