Demand for PVA film grows rapidly and competition among companies eases

PVA film has many special properties that ordinary plastic materials do not have, such as: complete biodegradability, excellent water-soluble properties, superior light transmittance and polarization, excellent far-infrared blocking properties, superior gas barrier properties, Non-static properties, excellent heat resistance and demoulding properties, good organic solvent barrier properties, etc., make PVA film widely used in many different industries and products, such as: medical disposal bags, agrochemicals, food, detergents , Anti-static electronic packaging, oscillation substrates for 3D glasses and LCD panels, release films for auto parts and artificial marble, special-shaped curved surface water transfer films, textile embroidery bottom padding materials, permeation vaporization of organic solvent treatments ( PV) film, etc.

According to the “In-depth Market Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report of China’s PVA Water-soluble Adhesive Film Industry from 2022 to 2027” released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that the scale of application in pesticides, daily necessities, textiles and other fields has continued to expand in recent years, driving the demand for PVA film in the Chinese market to continue to grow. Although the global COVID-19 epidemic broke out in early 2020, the PVA film industry has been adversely affected to some extent. Demand remains on the rise. Among them, in 2021, China’s demand for PVA film will be approximately 8,500 tons, a year-on-year increase of 7%.

In terms of demand areas, East China and South China have a relatively high level of economic development, especially the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta, which are the gathering areas for my country’s pharmaceutical, electronics, textile, daily chemical and other industrial enterprises. The demand for PVA film products is relatively large. . In terms of demand structure, according to different dissolution temperatures, PVA film can be divided into normal temperature PVA film, medium temperature PVA film and high temperature PVA film. Among them, the demand for normal temperature PVA film accounts for close to 50% and is the main one. Requirement type.

The PVA film industry has certain technical barriers, professional certification barriers, capital barriers, etc., which make the PVA film industry have certain entry barriers. Therefore, the number of manufacturing companies in the industry is not very large, about 20-30. Among the existing enterprises, key local enterprises include Yongan Sanyuanfeng, Foshan Bowei Environmental Protection, Fujian Zhongsu Biotech, Daze Chemical, Zhaoqing Fangxing Packaging, etc.; multinational enterprises include Japan Kuraray, Japan Synthetic Chemical, etc. The overall production capacity of the enterprise is relatively strong.

Industrial researchers believe that as an environmentally friendly and degradable plastic product, PVA film is supported by national policies and has a large downstream market demand. , which has attracted many companies to enter the industry, including upstream raw material production companies, other film product production companies and downstream application companies. But overall, the scale of enterprises in China’s PVA film industry is generally small. If potential entrants choose to enter the industry, entrants with advanced technology and equipment and financial advantages can quickly gain a larger market share, which will have a negative impact on existing enterprises. The threat is greater. However, some larger existing companies have already accumulated a certain amount of customers and have relatively rich market experience. New entrants will not pose a major threat to them in the short term.
