Production capacity and operation of the enterprise

440000 T / A in Jinling, Shandong Province

Dongying Jinmao 120000 tons / year parking

Low load of 400000 tons / year in Luxi Chemical Industry

Jiangsu Liwen 160000 tons / year 70%

Jiangxi Liwen: 120000 tons / year: 50%

At present, the overall performance of chloroform market is stable, the purchasing intention of downstream market is flat, and the demand for chloroform is just insufficient. However, with the continuous increase of raw material liquid chlorine, the cost side of chloroform production enterprises is high, the enterprises are strongly interested in price support, and the market supply and demand game is strong. At present, the quotation of Shandong Province is about 1850-1950 yuan / ton, Jiangxi Province is about 2300 yuan / ton, and Jiangsu Province is about 2650 yuan / ton.

In terms of upstream market, methanol market is running at a high level with low market inventory. Downstream enterprises and traders are active in purchasing and operating strongly in a short period of time. At present, the liquid chlorine market is affected by the maintenance plan of main production enterprises, and the downstream and traders’ intention to prepare goods increases, and the market transaction is active, and the price of liquid chlorine is firm and upward. At present, the mainstream quotation in the industry is about 1200-1400 yuan / ton.

In terms of downstream market, the refrigerant market is weak and stable, the domestic market is weak, the transaction environment continues to be depressed, traders are cautious to take goods, and the market is expected to weaken in the short term; the pharmaceutical and agricultural solvent industry started smoothly, and there is insufficient support for chloroform.

Analysts of methane chloride data from business society believe that at present, the domestic chloroform market is affected by the high price of raw materials, and the production cost is high. However, the purchasing intention of downstream market is flat, and they hold a wait-and-see attitude towards chloroform. Therefore, some enterprises reduce the burden and reduce pressure, and it is expected that the price of chloroform will remain stable in a short period of time.
