Coating industry structure

In the new century, the development of coatings industry has ushered in golden decade. However, in the past two years, the development of the industry has obviously "stalled", the growth rate of major economic indicators has slowed down, the downstream production and marketing situation is not good, the labor cost of raw materials has risen, and the pressure of structural adjustment has become prominent.

Aside from the obvious decline in growth rate, we must face up to the fact that the coating industry is still a low value-added industry with low profit margin and low proportion of high-tech and high value-added products; The innovation investment and motivation of enterprises are insufficient, products are hovering at the low end, industrial concentration is not high, and homogenization competition has not been fundamentally solved. Judging from this, industrial structure adjustment, product upgrading and innovation-driven development are the main contradictions and main directions of the coating industry.

In 20 12, the growth of China coatings industry achieved a "soft landing", and what is more commendable is that it took a solid step of transformation and upgrading. 20 13, the development of coating industry is still in an important period of strategic opportunities, and the customers of coating industry show a good trend. The acceleration of industrialization, urbanization, informationization and agricultural modernization, and the rapid rise of emerging industries have provided a broad stage for the economic growth of the coating industry.

These favorable factors provide a rare opportunity for the paint industry to get out of the predicament and become bigger and stronger. The coating industry should fundamentally change the concepts of production, marketing, use and consumption, take a new road of differentiation, coating integration and specialization, and accelerate the transformation to green development.
