Current situation and development trend of the hot

BOPP film market status and development trend (Part 1)

with the sustained development of China's national economy and the improvement of people's living standards, the social demand for BOPP film is increasing by about 10% - 12%. In the past few years, the production of BOPP film has higher profits, which has stimulated the rapid development of BOPP film. In particular, the large-scale introduction of BOPP film in and has increased the number of BOPP film manufacturers in China to 109, with 180 production lines (as of May 2005). These manufacturers are distributed in more than 20 provinces, cities and autonomous regions

BOPP film manufacturers in mainland China are unevenly distributed. Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Guangdong alone account for 67% of the national BOPP output That is to say, 20%, of which 542000 tons are from Zhejiang, accounting for 22.19%; Jiangsu 561000 tons, accounting for 22.96%; Guangdong 538600 tons, accounting for 22.05%; The remaining 17 provinces and cities accounted for only 32.80%; There are also 12 provinces, cities and autonomous regions blank

in recent years, the demand for BOPP film has increased steadily at a rate of%, while the production of BOPP has doubled in recent years, causing the price of raw materials to rise. Overcapacity has led to lower product prices and corporate profits. The BOPP industry is in a serious situation, and some enterprises can only maintain by reducing costs. However, there is a limit to reducing costs. Only by strengthening technological development and narrowing the gap with foreign products. For example, ExxonMobil has an annual output of more than 200000 tons of BOPP film, with more than 40 varieties and a wide range of applications

business status

according to the management of each enterprise, in order to take appropriate resins (such as PA, PP, ABS and peek, etc.) to infiltrate it, and under the condition of a certain processing volume, the profit and loss balance point of processing fee per ton of a production line with a single output of more than 20000 tons/year is yuan; For a production line with a single output of 10000-20000 tons/year, the breakeven point of processing fee per ton is between yuan/ton; For production lines with less than 10000 tons, especially those with less than 6000 tons, the processing cost per ton is about 3000 yuan. At present, small-scale production of ordinary film products is unprofitable, and a considerable number of enterprises suffer serious losses

due to the rapid development of industry, there is also a panic in the power supply that was thought not to be a problem in the near future. In some regions, power supply is limited, power consumption is limited, and in some regions, the price of electricity is increased by cents/kWh on the basis of the current price. As we all know, BOPP industry is a large power user with strong continuity of power consumption, and the time limit and price adjustment undoubtedly make it worse for enterprises. BOPP production enterprises are also enterprises with large transportation volume, and overloaded transportation occurs from time to time. The central government issued a two-year plan to focus on the problem of overload of freight vehicles this year, which was originally a good thing, but at the same time caused BOPP production enterprises to increase transportation costs

in, new production lines were put into operation in succession across the country, with an additional capacity of about 1.5 million tons, resulting in a serious shortage of raw material supply. Coupled with the increase of uncertainties in the international oil market of upstream enterprises of raw materials, the prices of domestic and foreign raw material suppliers rose one after another, making the originally low profit BOPP industry almost unprofitable

investment in fixed assets is overheated, and the central government has taken timely measures to clearly limit investment in steel, cement, electrolytic aluminum and other fields. Although the BOPP industry is not one of them, it is still affected by its aftereffects, which makes some manufacturers have to modify their investment plans and financing channels to meet the requirements of adjustment

the growth rate of production capacity is much higher than that of demand. The supply exceeds the demand originally, and the new line continues to be put into production. The startup and commissioning membranes of the new line enter the market cheaply, accounting for part of the market share, which is also one of the reasons why the price cannot go up. What's more, in order to occupy the market, they don't hesitate to use preferential conditions such as lower than the cost price to seize customers. As a result, the vitality of the industry is greatly damaged, and raw material suppliers and downstream users benefit

Application of BOPP

composition of equipment

the composition of BOPP film production equipment in China is divided by purpose: ordinary film accounts for 90%, capacitor film accounts for 10%. See the table below for equipment suppliers

it can be seen from the table that the BOPP production lines of Bruckner in Germany and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in Japan are the two that have absolute advantages in China, accounting for 46.67% and 33.89% of the Chinese market respectively, accounting for 80.56% of the Chinese market share; The third is French DMT, which accounts for 10.5% of the Chinese market share, or does it use gold and diamonds like Vertu and Heuer? In fact, these are not 6% and others account for 8.89%. In terms of production capacity, the production capacity of Bruckner equipment in China is 1114600 tons, accounting for 45.58%; Mitsubishi Heavy Industries is 957000 tons, accounting for 39.13%; DMT is 250500 tons, accounting for 10.24%, and others are 123500 tons, accounting for only 5.05%

supply of raw materials

at present (referring to the late May of 2005), the price of BOPP special materials has fallen, the price of domestic materials is yuan/ton, and the price of imported special materials is between US dollars, of course, excluding the special materials for electrical film

with the introduction of high-yield production lines put into operation, according to the existing BOPP film production capacity conversion, the domestic annual demand for BOPP special resin will exceed 2million tons. Therefore, PP resin manufacturers should pay attention to developing PP special materials with high speed, strong extensibility and high transparency for BOPP film, including supporting copolymerization materials, to meet the needs of newly introduced BOPP equipment

demand analysis

bopp has a wide range of uses and market adaptability. Although some markets have been penetrated by CPP, there are still relatively fixed markets in soft composite packaging, cigarette packaging, electricians (capacitors), adhesive tape, aluminizing and laser molding. BOPP is localized in these North Korean assembly and repair materials: the demand for perforated plastic tile surface is still growing at% per year
