According to statistics from Tuduo, China's titanium dioxide output in July 2024 was 388,200 tons, a month-on-month decrease of 0.97%, and a year-on-year increase of 17.31%; the cumulative output of titanium dioxide from January to July 2024 was 2.774 million tons, an increase of 20.41% year-on-year in the same period last year, and the output increased by approximately 470,200 tons.

In July, titanium dioxide output decreased. Some manufacturers in Shandong, Sichuan and other regions underwent equipment maintenance. Although the companies in the early stages of maintenance basically returned to normal production, the overall domestic output still experienced a slight decline.

The top three regions in July's output were Sichuan, Anhui and Henan, accounting for 21%, 14%, and 13% of the total output respectively;

In July, the output of chlorinated titanium dioxide was 51,400 tons, a year-on-year increase of 14.67% and a month-on-month increase of 1.97%. The cumulative output of chlorinated titanium dioxide from January to July 2024 was 373,800 tons, a year-on-year increase of 7.22%.

Domestic demand is still weak, and demand in the coatings and papermaking industries has weakened. However, titanium dioxide output has maintained a growth trend, and the market supply and demand relationship is unbalanced, restricting the upward trend of market prices. Costs such as raw materials are high, and some companies have also suffered losses in prices, causing greater pressure on production of enterprises; The overall market order receiving situation weakened again in August, but due to cost support, market prices remained firm. As maintenance companies resume production, output may rebound in August. However, the overall market demand is weak, and companies are mostly on the sidelines. State, the titanium dioxide market is mainly stable.
