Analysis of the Development Situation of China's Polyethylene Resin Industry

In recent years, China's polyethylene production and apparent consumption have shown an upward trend.
In 2019, the output was 17.
79 million tons, and the consumption was about 34.
69 million tons

Polyethylene English name: polyethylene, referred to as PE, is a thermoplastic resin obtained by polymerization of ethylene

Polyethylene is very sensitive to environmental stress (chemical and mechanical action) and has poor thermal aging resistance

1.
China's polyethylene resin output is nearly 18 million tons

Due to the increasingly fierce competition in the polyethylene market in recent years, coupled with the increasingly stringent environmental supervision, some small and medium-sized enterprises have entered a state of indefinite shutdown, and the growth rate of polyethylene production has begun to slow down

In 2019, the country's new PE production capacity was 900,000 tons/year, an increase of 4.
6% compared with the end of 2018, and the launch was delayed compared with the expectations at the beginning of the year

2.
The apparent consumption of polyethylene (PE) resin in China is nearly 37 million tons

From 2012 to 2019, the apparent consumption of polyethylene (PE) resin in China has generally increased year by year

3.
China's polyethylene (PE) market is highly concentrated

According to the statistics of Zhuochuang Information, there are more than 30 enterprises producing PE in China, including CNOOC Shell, Daqing Petrochemical, Dushanzi Petrochemical, Fushun Petrochemical, Maoming Petrochemical and other enterprises.
The top ten enterprises with PE production capacity account for nearly half of the total domestic production capacity.
The overall market concentration is high

4.
China's polyethylene resin trade deficit is huge

On the whole, the import volume of polyethylene resin shows a steady growth trend, while the export volume fluctuates at a low level
