Dye industry will strictly control industry access threshold

China National Dyestuff Industry Association recently published the draft outline of the “Twelfth Five-Year Development Plan for Dyestuff Industry” in the full text, proposing to initially build a dye-industry powerhouse during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, and the growth rate of total industrial output value will reach 8-10%, focusing on environmental protection. High-quality, high-value-added products represented by economical and high-performance dyes, organic pigments and additives.

"12th Five-Year Plan" industry is expected to increase by 3% to 3.5%

During the “11th Five-Year Plan” period, China’s dyestuffs achieved an average annual growth of 6.29% in industrial output value, an average annual increase in industrial sales revenue of 6.20%, an average annual increase of 9.80% in profits and taxes, and an average annual increase of 2.67% in output. However, the domestic dyestuff industry currently has many problems such as excess production capacity of low-end products, disorderly competition of similar products, serious lack of toxicological properties and ecotoxicological properties of products.

"Plan" proposed in this regard, during the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, should speed up industrial restructuring, and plans to 3% to 3.5% of the total, industrial output value of 8% to 10% of the rate of development and production, the initial establishment of the dye industry power; Create high-quality, high-value-added products represented by environmentally-friendly and high-performance dyes, organic pigments and additives.

According to the key development directions defined in the “Planning”, new reactive dyes, high-performance disperse dyes, high-grade organic pigments, digital inkjet printing dyes, textile auxiliaries, high-performance masterbatch, etc. will be the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” focus. New products.

At the same time, the key technologies that will be developed during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” are: Catalytic Technology, Trioxide Technology, Continuous Nitrification Technology, Insulated Nitrification Technology, Directional Chlorination Technology, Combined Synergistic Technology, Solvent Reaction Technology, and Recycling Technology, replacement of ** and other highly toxic materials applicable technology.

Strictly control industry access threshold

It is reported that the "planning" requirements, adjust the product structure, change the low-grade homogeneity and low-price competition, truly achieve the market with high quality and high prices, and gradually increase the proportion of China's dye market value to the global total market value.

“This includes two directions: First, scientifically control the amount of new additions, that is, prohibit the launch of high-pollution, low-energy-efficient projects, and actively encourage the construction of clean technology projects. Second, vigorously transform stocks, that is, eliminate outdated high-pollution, high-energy-consuming technologies. And devices," said a person from the China Dyestuff Industry Association.

To this end, the "Plan" proposes to strictly control "double high" products and new projects with excess capacity; strictly control non-park new projects, improve industrial access threshold.

According to statistics, in 2010, sales of scattered dyes were 105,000 tons, and sales of reactive dyes were 45,000 tons. This year, the downstream demand for dyes grew slightly faster than the same period last year.

“Usually, reactive dyes are used for dyeing cotton cloths and disperse dyes for dyeing polyester. Due to the unexpected increase in cotton prices last year, the demand for reactive dyes was suppressed, and the demand for disperse dyes was stimulated, together with low concentration of reactive dyes and disperse dyes. The high degree of industry concentration has led to the decline in the gross profit margin of the former and the increase in the latter's gross profit margin, said an industry source.

Among the listed companies, Lantu Group 002440 currently has 100,000 tons of disperse dyes and 30,000 tons of reactive dyes; Zhejiang Longsheng 600352 has a disperse dye production capacity of 120,000 tons/year and a reactive dye production capacity of 60,000 tons/year.
