Titanium Industry: Demand & Cost Pressures

Against the backdrop of a complex and volatile global economic situation and the differentiation of demand in various industries, the titanium industry chain, as an important industrial foundation, has attracted much attention for its market price fluctuations.

From mining to terminal product manufacturing, the various links in the titanium industry chain influence each other, and multiple variables such as market supply and demand, policy environment, and cost factors are intertwined to jointly shape the current market pattern. Today, the market performance of various products in the titanium industry chain is different, and new changes have occurred in prices and supply and demand. ​

Titanium Ore​
On May 28, the Panxi Titanium Ore Price Index was 1946.25, down 37.50 from yesterday. Panxi's new order quotation was firm, the market inquiry and purchase were more, and the low price of titanium ore decreased. Due to the sluggish downstream demand, the pressure on the shipment of imported titanium ore was relatively large, the market transaction was deadlocked, and the prices of some import miners were also lowered. ​

Titanium Slag​
The downstream market was weak, the demand for titanium slag was weak, and some slag plants in Inner Mongolia were also in a state of suspension due to environmental protection and equipment, and the market output was low. Northern large factories have started a new round of bidding, and the market is mostly on the sidelines.​

Titanium tetrachloride​
The market price of titanium tetrachloride is 5300-5500 yuan/ton. The titanium tetrachloride market is stable, the market price is low, the raw material price is still high, and the cost pressure is relatively large. ​

Titanium sponge​
The price of first-grade titanium sponge civilian products is about 50,000-53,000 yuan/ton. The market price of some 0-grade titanium sponge is 53,000-54,000 yuan/ton. The market price of titanium sponge is relatively high, the downstream demand is sluggish, and the pressure to purchase at a high price is relatively large. The market supply and demand game. ​

Titanium dioxide​
The titanium dioxide price index on May 28 was 14680.25, down 52.42 from yesterday. Demand is sluggish, the pressure to ship is still large, and the market sentiment is still relatively pessimistic. Affected by costs, some companies have quoted more, and the titanium dioxide market is temporarily weak and stable. ​

On the whole, the current titanium industry chain is facing the dual dilemma of continued sluggish demand and high pressure on the cost side. The various product markets are struggling to move forward in the game of supply and demand. Although some links have shown a certain degree of price resilience, the overall market pessimism has not been effectively alleviated.

In the future, with the recovery of downstream industries, the adjustment of environmental protection policies and the advancement of corporate cost control measures, the titanium industry chain market may usher in new changes and opportunities, and its price trend and market structure still deserve continued attention and in-depth analysis.
