Global and China Refractory materials Industry Report, 2016-2020
NEW YORK, March 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Impacted by factors such as global economic downturn, China's economic slowdown, weak growth in downstream sectors of refractories industry, as well as the rising prices of raw materials in recent years, the refractories industry of China has seen fiercer competition, which has resulted in a fall in companies' orders and sales volume. Even worse, some have made losses.
In the first three quarters of 2015, the refractory output in China was 18.0825 million tons, down 7.63% from the same period of last year, with an estimated full-year output of roughly 26 million tons. Over the same period, China's refractory exports totaled 1.2997 million tons, down 7.61% year-on-year, as opposed to some 1.75 million tons for the full year.
Among key downstream sectors of refractories industry including steel, cement, glass, and building materials, steel represented the largest portion, at around 65% of the global total. In 2015, the crude steel output worldwide amounted to 1.6228 billion tons, a year-on-year fall of 2.8%, of which 803.8 million tons came from China, down 2.3% from the previous year.
Affected by overcapacity in downstream sectors like steel, industrial restructuring and the decreased consumption of refractories for per ton of steel, the demand for refractories in China is anticipated to drop to 21.4 million tons (including export) by 2020, of which refractory for steel will hit about 10.5 million tons.
Presently, there have been several large corporate groups such as Vesuvius, RHI, Morgan Advanced Materials, Magnesita Refratários, and Shinagawa Refractories in the global refractories industry, and all of them have business layout in China.
So far in China, there have been over 2,000 manufacturers of refractory raw materials and products, with the market featuring fierce competition and low concentration, and the combined market share of the top 10 companies reaching about 15%. Through complementing each other and trans-regional allied reorganization of preponderant enterprises over recent years, a number of leading players consisting of Yingkou Qinghua Group, Beijing Lier High-temperature Materials, Luyang Energy-saving Materials, Puyang Refractories Group, and Zhejiang Zili Corporation Limited have sprung up.
