Abstract
PVC demand in China to grow 8% annually to 2010
Demand for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) in China will rise 8.0 percent annually to twelve million metric tons in 2010, primarily driven by healthy (although moderating) growth in construction expenditures, as well as by advances in consumer spending and the growing share of plastics in packaging applications. In 2005, China consumed 8.2 million metric tons of PVC, passing the US to become the largest consumer of PVC in the world.
Extruded PVC to remain dominant in China
Extrusion is the most important process used to manufacture PVC products in China, with extruded products projected to make up more than half of the market in 2010. This growth reflects good opportunities for PVC in the construction market, which accounted for more than 70 percent of extruded products demand in 2005. The second largest use, molded products, will grow more than six percent annually through 2010, based on strong demand in packaging applications. Increasing growth in synthetic leather production will drive demand for dispersion coated PVC, which will be the fastest growing use through 2010.
