It is estimated that China's dye production will reach 904000 tons in 2023

With the development of the downstream printing and dyeing industry, China's textile dye manufacturing industry continues to grow. At the beginning of the founding of New China, China's dye industry has reached a certain scale, with an annual output of 5200 tons. The product is mainly made of sulfur dyes, but there are also a small amount of acid dyes and direct dyes. With the deepening of reform and opening up and the rapid development of China's textile industry, the dye industry has made remarkable achievements.

From the perspective of production, from 2018 to 2020, China's dye production showed a downward trend, mainly because China entered a period of intensive implementation of environmental protection policies in 2018, and local governments conducted centralized rectification on dye manufacturing enterprises in relevant regions. Many dye manufacturing enterprises with substandard environmental protection facilities reduced production or even shut down, leading to a certain degree of decline in the overall operating rate and output of the dye manufacturing industry. In 2021, China's dye production began to rebound, surpassing that of 2018. It is expected that China's dye production will reach 904000 tons in 2023.

Our country can produce more than 1200 kinds of dyes, with over 700 kinds of dyes each year, and over 100 kinds of disperse dyes, reactive dyes, and acid dyes. Among them, the production of disperse dyes accounts for 45.57%, reactive dyes account for 30.51%, and disperse dyes account for the largest proportion.

market size

The performance of our country's dye industry continues to improve. Although in 2018, some small and medium-sized dye enterprises in China experienced a significant decline in dye production due to environmental protection and safety issues in 2019. However, due to the adjustment of industrial structure and changes in market supply and demand, the prices of dye products have increased significantly, and the industrial structure has been further optimized. Companies with environmental protection and safety technology advantages have room for further development. In 2020, affected by the COVID-19, the total output value and sales revenue of the dye industry have declined. In 2021, the total value of China's dye industry will reach 69.93 billion yuan, and it is expected that the total value of China's dye industry will reach 79.67 billion yuan in 2023.

Future market development prospects

Accelerated process of industrial cleaning production and recycling

Production enterprises generally attach importance to green manufacturing, recycling, continuous production, and automation technology. Focusing on energy conservation and consumption reduction, dye companies have continuously improved production equipment and processes, combined with their own realities, and continuously absorbed high-tech achievements, vigorously promoting green manufacturing technology for dyes, reducing the generation of pollutants such as sewage and COD. Enterprise managers gradually establish a comprehensive concept of ecology, environment, and health, increase investment in comprehensive environmental management, consciously and actively recycle waste materials, and achieve green manufacturing and recycling.

Increasing market share

With the tightening of national environmental protection policies, the production and environmental protection costs of dye manufacturing enterprises have significantly increased, and some small and medium-sized dye manufacturing enterprises are under increased operational pressure and forced to withdraw from market competition. Powerful dye manufacturing enterprises have gained market share left by exiting companies by virtue of their advantages in scale, technology, and capital, further promoting the concentration of the domestic dye manufacturing industry, and further conducive to the healthy and orderly development of the industry.
