Sun Lianying revealed: the first half of the coating industry economic operation.

In the first half of 2019, my country's paint and pigment industry will continue to experience severe tests, and environmental protection and safety-related regulations and requirements will become more stringent, regulating the production and operation of enterprises; in view of the safety issues of chemical companies in 2018, a large number of companies Actively seek to enter the park and centralize management; the rise in upstream raw materials has weakened. This year, more and more enterprises have realized that promoting transformation with environmental protection and seeking development with green is the only way for enterprises in the future, and the whole industry has greatly accelerated the pace of transformation and upgrading.

In this context, Sun Lianying, president of the China Coatings Industry Association, recently took "Analysis of Economic Operation of China's Coatings Industry and Interpretation of Key Policies" at the "2019 China Coatings Enterprises' 8 3 'Summit Forum"., Analyzed and interpreted the economic operation of the coatings industry in the first half of 2019, this provides a solid survey material for the industry to recognize the development reality, the enterprise adjustment strategy, and the individual to straighten out the direction of efforts.

Economic Operation of Coating Industry in the First Half of the Year

Sun Lianying revealed that in the first half of 2019, the total output of China's coating industry was 9.6445 million tons, up 4.8 percent from the same period last year. The total income from the main business was 148.92 billion yuan, down 1.0 percent from the same period last year. The total profit was 9.82 billion yuan, down 7.1 percent from the same period last year. Among them, the output of Guangdong, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Sichuan and Hubei ranked first to fifth. In terms of import and export, in the first half of 2019, the total import and export volume of China's paint and pigment industry in the first half of the year was 990700 tons, down 5.89 percent from the same period last year; the total import and export volume was 2.493 billion billion US dollars, down 8.81 percent from the same period last year; and the trade surplus was 0.682 billion billion US dollars, down 19.95 percent from the same period last year.

"100 Index" Enterprise Economic Operation Performance

Among the 104 paint enterprises selected according to the standard of enterprises with main business income exceeding 0.1 billion yuan, Libang topped the list with 17.574 billion yuan in 2018, akzo Nobel, PPG, Jordan, BASF, Hunan Xiangjiang River, Axite, Xuanwei Valspar, Three Trees and Dewey Paint ranked 2 to 10 respectively. The total main business income of these 10 enterprises accounted for 57% of the total main business income of the 104 enterprises participating in the survey. Among them, only Lipang accounted for 15.74 of the total main business income of the "100 Index" enterprises in 2018, it accounted for 5.37 of the total revenue of the main business of the national coatings industry in 2018, and the total profit accounted for 11.49 of the total profit of the national coatings industry.

Key Policies and Trend Analysis

Sun Lianying said that the Comprehensive Treatment Plan for Volatile Organic Compounds in Key Industries was planned from four aspects. First, vigorously promote the source of substitution, strengthen policy guidance, Sun Lianying pointed out that the state encourages low VOCs paint substitution, from the source to reduce VOCs. At the same time, the policy stipulates that if the enterprise adopts coatings, inks, adhesives, etc. that meet the national regulations on products with low VOCs content, and the emission concentration is stable and the emission rate and emission performance meet the relevant regulations, the corresponding production process may not require the construction of end treatment facilities. Processes where the VOCs content (mass ratio) of raw and auxiliary materials used is less than 10% may not require unorganized emission collection measures; the second is to strengthen unorganized emission control; the third is to promote the construction of suitable and efficient pollution control measures; the fourth is in-depth implementation Refined management, implement the "one factory, one policy" system, organize experts to provide professional technical support, strictly check, and strengthen enterprise assistance and guidance.

"Technical Guide for Emergency Emission Reduction Measures for Key Industries in Heavy Pollution Weather" provides standardized guidance on the scope of application, production process, emission reduction measures and verification methods of 31 industries including paint, ink, furniture and industrial coating, and conducts performance classification for 15 industries including paint and ink, and formulates differentiated emission reduction measures. The intensity of emission reduction measures should be higher than the measures proposed in the Technical Guide, and try to meet the requirements of the emission reduction ratio of various pollutants during the early warning period of the emergency plan for heavy pollution weather.

Future Development Direction and Economic Operation Prospect of Coating Industry

Talking about the development direction, Sun Lianying believes that the coating industry will move towards green, integrated, innovative and intelligent direction. She said that with the advancement of the national green manufacturing system, the identification of green products, green factories, and green supply chains will become synonymous with the green quality of corporate products and quality certification marks; non-intensive and low-quality development will undoubtedly lead to market chaos., And mislead the thinking of policy makers and affect the direction of the industry. For this reason, through the joint efforts of the industry, jointly respond to upstream and downstream pressure. Centralized procurement in the upstream, standardization of the price system in the downstream, avoidance of vicious competition, and at the same time mergers and reorganizations, bigger and stronger, so that bad money cannot drive out good money, are the essence of integrated development; Sun Lianying said that the development thinking of conventional enterprises is low-price competition, The development thinking of innovative enterprises is the competition of technology and quality. For this reason, innovative development is the potential driving force for the development of successful enterprises; and intelligent development, sun Lianying said frankly that the human factors in the daily operation of enterprises are heavy, uncontrollable and uncertain. Therefore, powerful enterprises are bound to realize the sustainable development of the whole supply chain through intelligent road, and improve the collaborative efficiency and production efficiency. "All in all, in 2019, China's coatings industry is still in an important period of strategic opportunities and will maintain the momentum of steady and slow and steady change. I hope you entrepreneurs will be ready to meet the challenges of the future." Sun Lianying said.
