Synthetic resin: the demand for PE is declining and demand for PP is growing steadily

In 2021, the production capacity will increase by 20.9% to 28.36 million tons / year; The output increased by 16.3% year-on-year to 23.287 million tons; Due to the large number of new units put into operation, the unit operating rate decreased by 3.2% to 82.1%; The supply gap decreased by 23% year-on-year to 14.08 million tons.
It is estimated that in 2022, China’s PE production capacity will increase by 4.05 million tons / year to 32.41 million tons / year, an increase of 14.3%. Limited by the impact of plastic order, the growth rate of domestic PE demand will decline. In the next few years, there will still be a large number of new proposed projects, facing the pressure of structural surplus.
In 2021, the production capacity will increase by 11.6% to 32.16 million tons / year; The output increased by 13.4% year-on-year to 29.269 million tons; The operating rate of the unit increased by 0.4% to 91% year-on-year; The supply gap decreased by 44.4% year-on-year to 3.41 million tons.
