CCM Data & Primary Intelligence Description: Driven by China’s rapidly developing economy in past few years, PVC industry in China has witnessed great development. Since 2005, China has been the largest manufacturer and consumer of PVC in the world, sharing about 30% global PVC output and consumption per year. Different from most overseas countries, China adopts both calcium carbide method and ethylene method, since China has abundant calcium carbide resources. In 2008, PVC by calcium carbide method captures 70.74% of the total output in China. After rapid expansion in the past five years, calcium carbide PVC has encountered great competition from ethylene PVC, especially after the price fall of crude oil since July 2008. How the dynamics of raw materials has affected PVC production in China? What is the production situation with these two methods in 2008 and 2009? What the trend of China’s PVC production and market in the next 10 years, especially for calcium carbide method, will be? Though China is still a net importer of PVC, its import volume has reduced greatly after 2003. After the price slump of crude oil in 2008, has the import and export of PVC changed in 2008 and 2009? Major driver for the increasing PVC output in China is the growing demand from downstream industries, whose development trend and PVC consumption in the next 5-10 years are provided with forecast in details in this report. The report also covers following aspects of China’s PVC industry: - Government regulations on PVC industry in China - All PVC producers in China, especially for calcium carbide PVC, and their plan for future PVC projects - Price change of PVC by the two methods in the past three years and its influencing factors - Import & export analysis of PVC in the past 5 years in China - Consumption pattern in different end use segments - Resources analysis, covering coal, electricity and salt in China - Comparison between calcium carbide method and ethylene method - Ethylene production and general information of China’s petrochemical products, such as naphtha, gas oil, LPG and so on - Investment opportunities in China’s PVC industry

Executive summary: As the largest common synthetic resin in China, Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), closely related to people's daily lives, is widely used in construction, automobile, medicals, packaging and so on.

Driven by rapid development of China’s economy in past decade, PVC demand has been continuously increasing, which has stimulated fast development of domestic PVC production. Especially after China has started levying anti-dumping duty on imported PVC since 2003, China’s PVC capacity began to soar and peaked in 2005. However, the expansion rate of capacity had been higher than the growth rate of demand. Therefore, Chinese government has started to regulate PVC industry through raising entry threshold and other measures.

Despite PVC output grew at CAGR of XXX% in the past five years, peaking at XXX tonnes in 2007, China is sill a net importer of PVC as homemade PVC cannot meet the requirement of some downstream industries that demand high quality PVC, mainly produced with ethylene method.

As for consumption, China’s PVC consumption increased at CAGR of XXX% in 2004~2008,

CCM Data & Primary Intelligence peaking at XXX tonnes in 2007. PVC consumption structure has witnessed some changes in past few years: rigid PVC products consumed in pipe, window profile and plate is increasing; soft PVC products used in film, cable and shoes is dropping gradually. In the future, PVC will continue to enjoy bright prospect in consumption fields like window profile, pipe and plate thanks to prospering real estate industry.

Different from most overseas countries, one important feature of Chinese PVC industry is the coexistence of two production methods, namely calcium carbide method and ethylene method. Calcium carbide method is the major method adopted, with its output share reaching XXX% of China’s total in 2008, mainly because of China’s rich coal resource and poor crude oil resource

However, application of these methods has always been changing depending on the varied production cost. When crude oil price is high, manufacturers mainly adopt calcium carbide method with relatively low production cost. However, as crude oil price slumped after global finical crisis occurred, production cost of ethylene method is lower than that of calcium carbide method. Coupled with the slack demand from downstream industries, domestic manufacturers adopting calcium carbide method to stop or suspend production.

In China, raw materials to produce ethylene include naphtha, HCTO, gas oil in China and little LPG, ethane or condensate are used. Naphtha is major one and it has seen rising share in consumption of PVC’s raw materials in past decade. Currently, ethylene can just meet the demand from downstream industries in China under the condition that China’s GDP grows at about XXX%, though its capacity has been expanding fast in recent years. But self-sufficient rate of ethylene equivalents is quite low, below XXX% in 2009. Character of CCM' Report: The aim of this report is to provide powerful assistance to the strategy group and the management team in making correct decision as how to penetrate the ever-increasing China market and how to catch the maximum commercial opportunities. The report is formulated independently by CCM’s professional market researchers, based on the first-hand and primary data which are analyzed by scientific methodology, confirmed with both manufacturers/end users/traders and legal authorities, and presented in a logic way.
