Highlights
2024 is expected to be another year of rapid capacity expansion in the China PS industry, with new capacity mainly concentrated in H1, 2024. The Y-O-Y growth rate of PS capacity was over 10% in H1, 2024, but it decreased compared with that in 2023. The pace of the industry’s capacity expansion will gradually decrease in H2, 2024, and some projects may be halted. Although the capacity of PS constantly scaled up, it is difficult to make breakthroughs in the end demand revival. Against the backdrop of a mismatch between supply and demand, players will intensify competition in areas of product stability and diversification. Players will constantly adjust strategies of feedstock procurement and sales in response, looking for new energy in value destruction and market share acquisition. The economic environment in 2025 will be complex and changeable, and the quality and sustainability of economic growth are of paramount importance. Can PS end-demand sectors, such as home appliances, building insulation, daily use, toys, etc. be lit up with positive stimulus signals? Can proposed PS units be commissioned as expected? Can the export situation make a breakthrough in the context of gradually flat demand recovery at home and abroad? With a long-term tight supply of benzene, can the cost support from styrene persist? With multiple questions, SCI’s 2024-2025 China PS Market Annual Report provides a comprehensive data analysis to sort out the industrial pattern changes and predict industry development trends. The core competitiveness of the report is SCI’s first-hand detailed data, which is based on SCI’s in-depth research and detailed research.
