Melamine Insights: Melamine applications

Melamine is a versatile compound utilized in various consumer applications, including kitchen worktops, laminate floors, furniture, dinnerware, banknotes, and automotive coatings. These products typically contain bonded melamine-based polymers, ensuring safety even with direct or indirect oral contact.

?With a market size of 2.2 million tonnes per year and expanding usage across a wide spectrum of growing applications, melamine demonstrates a consistent upward trend in global demand. Over the past two decades, its yearly demand has increased by an average rate of 5.5%, reflecting its indispensable role in numerous industries.

Notably, the average selling price of melamine exceeds several times the costs of unfinished urea feedstock, significantly enhancing the overall profitability of fertilizer complexes. With melamine production typically closely tied to natural gas, it provides an advantageous opportunity for long-term profitability assessment and prediction.
