China Chemical Industry Market, Share, Trends & Forecast to 2025

The outbreak of the COVID-19 has made the Chinese chemical industry under strain owing to the increased infection rate, city shutdowns, and transportation halts across the nation. China is the main supplier of different chemicals such as plastic, fertilizers, medicines and so on for formation of finished products and so-called intermediate products used in countless industries. As per the CEFIC Chemdata International, in 2018, the chemical sales in China hold for around $1.32 trillion which is expected to be significantly low this year. As the cases increased in China in January, several chemical manufacturing plants were shut down due to a shortage of raw materials. The uncertainty imitates a similar condition that occurred in 2017 and 2018, when environmental pressures forced the Chinese manufacturers to shutdown numerous plants in China that resulted in short supply and high prices for specialty chemicals such as polymers.

To combat with this situation chemical manufacturing firms in China are trying to keep businesses running in the face of the coronavirus. Many chemical plants that were closed in January have been reopened in end of February month. According to a news release, most of the petrochemical plants operating in the southeast province of Zhejiang, a major chemical industry hub in China had started their production facilities by February end. However, most chemical plants are running at reduced capacity of around 40-70% owing to the under staffing, lack of raw material. In addition, the weakening demand from the end users due to the economic slowdown is among the key factors that are hindering the efforts of chemical manufacturers to get back to full speed in the country. In order to avoid supply chain disruptions, China is opting for the online distribution channels.
