Raising Mid-Market of Plastic Pipe
Plastic pipe is a general term for pipes made of plastic materials, which are mainly connected by pipes, pipe fittings, valves, and other connecting pieces, and can be divided into pipe fittings and pipes. Plastic pipes have the characteristics of lightweight, health and safety, metal saving, long service life, safety, and convenience. In recent years, with the increasing market demand in construction, municipal engineering, water conservancy engineering, agriculture, and industry, my country’s plastic pipe industry Shows a trend of rapid development.
Plastic pipe is an important branch among the many components of chemical building materials, and its application fields are extremely wide, involving various aspects such as industry, agriculture, municipal administration, fire protection, power communication, and construction. According to different chemical materials, plastic pipes can be divided into polyethylene (PE) pipes, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes, polypropylene (PP) pipes, ABS pipes, and polybutylene (PB) pipes. Features and advantages are widely used in market segments, and there is no absolute mutual substitution relationship. From the perspective of application classification, PVC pipes are mainly used in the construction field, PE pipes are mainly used as urban gas pipes, and PPR pipes are mainly used as home improvement hot water pipes. From the perspective of the proportion of each material application, in 2018, PVC pipes Applications accounted for the largest proportion, more than 45%, PE pipe applications accounted for more than 30%, and PP pipe applications accounted for more than 10%. Compared with concrete and steel and copper pipe materials, plastic pipes have advantages in performance and cost and are easy to install. In recent years, the application scale of plastic pipes in construction and non-construction fields has become larger and larger, and PE/PP pipes account for All have an upward trend.
According to the "In-depth Market Research and Investment Strategy Recommendation Report of the Plastic Pipe Industry for 2020-2024" issued by the New Sijie Industry Research Center, China is a major country in the production and application of plastic pipes. In recent years, the industrial concentration of the domestic plastic pipe industry has increased. The higher is mainly concentrated in coastal and economically developed areas. The total output of plastic pipes in Zhejiang, Guangdong, and Shandong is close to 50% of the national total; the development of the plastic pipe industry in other areas is relatively slow, and some companies are located in Tianjin, Northeast, and Central, Western and other regions invested in new or expanded production bases to expand the market scale of plastic pipes. In 2019, China’s plastic pipe output exceeded 16 million tons, an increase of about 2.3% year-on-year. With the acceleration of my country's urbanization construction, it will promote the development of the plastic pipe industry and continue to drive the growth of the plastic pipe market. It is expected that the national plastic pipe output in 2020 will be close to 17 million tons.
At present, my country’s plastic pipe industry market is dominated by small and medium-sized enterprises, with overcapacity for low- and medium-end products. As of the end of 2019, there are more than 3,000 large-scale domestic manufacturers, of which only about 20 companies have a production capacity of more than 100,000 tons. Industry analysts in New Thinking said that my country is a big country in the production and application of plastic pipes. In recent years, the industrial concentration of the domestic plastic pipe industry has increased. With the acceleration of urbanization, the scale of the plastic pipe market will continue to expand. As the consumer market has higher and higher quality requirements and stricter environmental protection supervision, my country's plastic pipe industry will develop in the direction of higher quality and more environmentally friendly in the future.
