What if the paint industry suffers from overcapacity?

coatings
industry is facing the problem of overcapacity, overcapacity reflects the long-term extensive industrial development mode caused by the supply structure and demand structure, thus forming a "structural overcapacity", characterized by low-level, homogenized capacity, high-end capacity shortage. Although China's total paint production is located in the forefront of the world, but backward overcapacity, a large number of coatings need to be eliminated, high-end areas of high-quality coatings are in short supply, some varieties are still in short supply, especially in the field of civil coatings there is a serious phenomenon of homogenization, and in the

field,
Automotive coatings
,
anti-corrosion coatings
,
marine coatings
, marine coatings, wind power coatings and other high-end areas are also monopolized by foreign-funded enterprises, some high-end raw materials rely heavily on foreign countries.
the main reason for structural overcapacity in China's paint industry is that the industrial structure is unreasonable and the development mode is backward. Specific problems are mainly manifested in the industry innovation ability is not strong, peer enterprises piled up in the low-end market fighting, fighting "price war", new technologies, new products difficult to meet demand. The extensive development mode of the industry has not formed the industrial development pattern led by the strong and excellent enterprises, resulting in disorderly competition and serious repeated construction of the industry; In addition, some
coal enterprises
seeking big, fast-hearted, too optimistic about market expectations, blind investment, blindly in the middle and low-end areas of the "spread cake", and the paint industry did not achieve timely structural adjustment and industrial upgrading, resulting in the middle and low-end overcapacity situation is becoming more and more serious.
, medium and low-end overcapacity, bitter fruit can only be tasted by everyone. "Low-end surplus" led to China's paint industry as a whole is unable to compete with the international market, foreign-funded enterprises, small output, low-level manufacturers with low-cost products filled the market, to the industry is vicious "competition", "price war" is more and more intense, downstream demand with the market norms and products, services and other continuous upgrading, low-end products, the market is getting smaller and smaller; In recent years, the paint industry has made great leap forward-style investment, which has aggravated the repeated construction of low- and middle-end products, increased the difficulty of industrial structure adjustment, the most direct result is the decline in corporate profits. It can be said that some small and medium-sized enterprises, inferior product manufacturers are facing a life-and-death crisis.
in the competition with foreign-funded enterprises, domestic paint enterprises to keep a huge domestic market to do low-end products, but no competitiveness, really embarrassing. Overcapacity not only wastes resources, but also means great difficulties for enterprises and industries themselves. Therefore, it is urgent for the paint industry to resolve overcapacity, how to solve the problem of overcapacity?
is to speed up structural adjustment and the transformation of development mode. Adjust the industry and product structure, actively develop production capacity in line with market demand, realize the transformation from traditional production-oriented to production-service-oriented, from traditional coatings to green coatings industry, from low- and medium-end coatings to high-end coatings, from scale expansion to focus on quality and efficiency, thereby improving the overall level of industrial development. In addition, efforts should be made to improve the market structure, and the expansion of overseas markets as one of the important means to resolve overcapacity, capable enterprises can speed up the transfer of overseas industries to release excess capacity.
is to vigorously promote the elimination of backwardness and technological innovation. Strengthen industry access, strictly restrict new backward production capacity, and raise the market access threshold. Strengthen the elimination of high energy consumption, high pollution, scale is not economical, low-end production capacity paint enterprises. Drawing on the practices of developed countries, we should establish a compensation mechanism for the withdrawal of backward production capacity and its implementing rules as soon as possible, and establish an incentive mechanism to eliminate backward production capacity. increase efforts to carry out technological innovation, pay attention to the core, key, major technological breakthroughs, enhance the innovation-driven development momentum, through innovation to obtain their own core technology; Focus on supporting high-tech small and medium-sized enterprises, encourage enterprises to increase investment in technology research and development; On this basis, enterprises should make articles on variety, quality, energy saving and consumption reduction, environmental protection, strengthen the research and development and industrialization of high-end coatings, environmentally friendly coatings, expand the effective market demand, in order to improve the added value of products.
is to actively play the role of the government and trade associations. In recent years, China has issued various environmental protection policies, aimed at using policies to force industrial adjustment and upgrading, the government and associations should also formulate "the conditions for access to the paint industry" to promote the optimization and upgrading of the paint industry structure, regulate the order of market competition; Later, we should strengthen the approval and management of new paint projects, strictly control the total amount, improve the quality of existing production capacity, improve industrial concentration; Financial institutions shall not issue loans for projects that do not comply with relevant policies and procedures; We should encourage the promotion of mergers and reorganizations of enterprises, optimize the layout of industrial space, and support the merger and reorganization of coating enterprises in terms of financial and fiscal policies. It is urgent to formulate and improve industrial standards, and to formulate corresponding industry standards, which can not only effectively control and manage the production of coatings, but also automatically eliminate and suppress backward production capacity in a sense.
The contradiction between insufficient effective demand and overcapacity has become an important problem facing the development of China's coating industry, and there is still a long way to go to resolve the contradiction of overcapacity, which can not be solved overnight, and the paint industry and enterprises must focus on the long-term, specimen and treatment. Especially at present, China has entered the period of economic transformation and adjustment, overcapacity has become a more difficult problem, which requires the paint industry and enterprises to seize the opportunity in a timely manner, and actively resolve the contradiction of overcapacity. China Paint Procurement Network believes that the paint industry and enterprises should take a series of comprehensive measures to control the total amount, independent innovation, elimination of backwardness, merger and reorganization to resolve overcapacity, and the most fundamental is the need to "strongman broken wrist" courage and courage to adjust the structure and optimize industrial upgrading, accelerate the transformation of development mode, so as to achieve both specimens and treatment.
