Market Report

1. Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Market Analysis

  • The titanium dioxide market remains under pressure with weak downstream demand. Some enterprises have lowered their prices for May, leading to a chaotic pricing environment. Currently, Chinese rutile titanium dioxide is priced around $1,918-$2,139 per ton, and anatase titanium dioxide is priced around $1,821-$1,877 per ton.
  • Raw material costs, particularly for ilmenite, have decreased, easing some of the cost pressure on titanium dioxide production. However, the weak demand continues to exert downward pressure on prices.
  • There is a significant inventory pressure on enterprises, leading some to consider production cuts or temporary shutdowns to manage excess stock levels.

Market Report

1. Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Market Analysis

  • The titanium dioxide market remains volatile. As of late April, the price for sulfuric acid rutile-type titanium dioxide in China was approximately $1,947-$2,125 per ton, while sulfuric acid anatase-type titanium dioxide was priced at around $1,809-$1,892 per ton. Chloride process rutile-type titanium dioxide was priced at $2,111-$2,355 per ton.
  • Overall demand has not met expectations, leading to significant pricing pressure. Top manufacturers, including the LB Group, have maintained stable prices, though some companies have reduced prices due to rising inventories and export challenges.
  • High raw material costs have contributed to substantial cost pressures for producers, resulting in decreased production rates across the market. The market is characterized by high inventory levels and weak domestic demand.

Market Report

1. Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Market Analysis

  • The titanium dioxide market is experiencing weak demand, with some companies adjusting their prices. As of now, the price for rutile-type titanium dioxide (including tax) is approximately $1,919 to $2,071 per ton, while anatase-type titanium dioxide is priced at around $1,754 to $1,838 per ton.
  • Due to persistently low demand, inventory levels at titanium dioxide factories have increased, prompting companies to actively sell their products. Some companies have reduced prices for new orders by about $41 to $68 per ton to stimulate sales.
  • The cost of raw materials, like titanium ore, continues to decline, and sulfuric acid prices in some regions have also started to decrease, slightly relieving production cost pressures on titanium dioxide manufacturers.

Market Report

1. Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Market Analysis

  • The titanium dioxide market is experiencing weak demand, with enterprises facing significant pressure to offload inventory. Current prices for Chinese rutile titanium dioxide are approximately $2021-$2117 per ton, while anatase titanium dioxide is priced around $1802-$1884 per ton.
  • Despite high raw material costs, the sluggish demand has led to increased inventory levels, causing market prices to be somewhat chaotic. Some top manufacturers, including LB Group, face pressure due to the high cost of raw materials and weak market conditions.
  • Production remains high, but the market is oversupplied, and some enterprises have conducted maintenance to cope with the challenging market environment. Export pressures are also mounting due to various international market limitations.
