Industrial production - Chinese ceramic proppant of the storm

Through years of development and construction, Chinese ceramic manufacturers gradually out of a part of their own way. And this road is still long way to go.

Hot market in the second half of 2010 continued into 2011 year-end, when the 2012 New Year's bell sounded, China's ceramic manufacturers from the original explosion mushroomed dozens to hundreds of homes. Around the herd, Chinese ceramic market chaos began to take shape. Powerful enterprises swarm poured this seemingly "money scene" vast industry, Chinese origin of raw materials around the city invested heavily in building new factories and production lines, and local governments in order for this performance is also constantly conduct policy support, but also a large number of duplicate construction NDRC single product structure production lines approved for the record. Been filed and approved the factories have to be quickly established, the formation of a new round of overcapacity. By the end of 2011 China  Ceramic proppant  exports peaked.

Then enter 2012, this ever-amplified inadvertently bubble finally burst, the world's most important markets in the United States to complete the so-called shale gas revolution, suddenly fell down from the peak, ceramic proppant usage plummeted . U.S.  shale gas  development and put into commercial exploitation of the achievements of the U.S. energy self-sufficiency, and to make use of new technologies mature  Unconventional gas  output soaring gas prices also led to the fall.

At the same time the United States a large number of large number of natural placer mining, which act to follow suit within the industry that Frac sand and  ceramic proppant  in the short term can not be compared with the effect, but the immediate difference between the two will be able to calculate the cost of a finger . At many companies choose to use relatively inexpensive   frac sand ，   when China launched within a short time a large number of ceramic production line began early work across the board. For a time, a large number of ceramic manufacturers everywhere to sell the just-released product.

Wait until they are shipped to the United States of products in the warehouse lay quietly for a few months, they realized that the market turned, lower cost ceramic amount of frac sand is replaced. Seller's market into a buyer's market. Former Hong steamed bun suddenly become a hot potato. Because a lot of inventory resulting from financial pressures led many manufacturers unexpected, also led China ceramic prices are no longer strong. Carbonell price cuts in the U.S. and stimulation also indirectly affect the contract continues to be made. This means that the ceramic Carbonell can not meet when you can have the opportunity to obtain the contract.

And hard to obtain a long-term contract by the previous short-term changes, the customer began to be more picky. Market reshuffle coming, but now the situation has not forced many Chinese ceramic manufacturers hug together, price wars and reputation war has begun. Many well-known ceramic manufacturers have lying gun. In such a market situation how to go on longer, is one of many ceramic manufacturers want to think about. And we need a rational market, with better service and quality to obtain the customer's trust is the most critical.
