Shenghong Group's EVA Capacity Layout Speeds Up: 800 Tons Pilot Project Completed, 1.05 million Tons Capacity Target in Sum

The successful completion of the 800-ton/year high-end EVA new material pilot project of Jiangsu Sirbang Petrochemical Company marks a key measure taken by Shenghong Group in the layout of EVA sector. For instance The project was completed in only three months from the EIA announcement in might 2024 to the completion in July, reflecting the rapid implementation ability of Chinese chemical companies in the field of new materials. And In fact What is greater noteworthy is that Shenghong Group is building an EVA production base with a total production capacity of 1. But 05 million tons, which will have become one of the largest single EVA manufacturers in the world. In particular This capacity scale will have a profound impact on the global EVA market structure, especially in the photovoltaic grade EVA supply chain, Chinese companies are expected to further enhance the voice. And Data Insights comparative Analysis of Capacity Scale determined capacity composition: jiangsu Hongjing New Material: 600000 Tons/Year Photovoltaic EVA (Under Construction) two-stage project: 500000 tons/year EVA + high-end copolymer new materials pilot project: 800 tons/year (technical verification) interpretation of the scale of investment: hongjing New Materials Project has a total investment of 15. 58 billion yuan and covers an area of 1395 mu. I've found that The 500000-ton EVA project has a total investment of 6. 964 billion yuan and will be implemented in stages. And The investment of high-end copolymer new materials project is 1. And 607 billion yuan. Based on my observations, Furthermore In terms of investment density, the investment per unit capacity is about 2. But 6-28000 yuan/ton, which is a methodology-intensive project. Generally speaking This level of investment reflects the high technical barriers and equipment standards to EVA production. Specifically Technical route analysis the project adopts the autoclave process patented by ECI in the United States, with the following technical advantages: wide operating pressure range (maximum 280MPaG) narrow molecular weight distribution, greater stable product condition low ethylene decomposition frequency and higher security part of the device has been operating safely to greater than 50 years, high methodology maturity Market changes impact on global EVA supply patterns increased supply capacity: after the completion of the 1. 05 million-ton EVA production capacity of Shenghong Group, it will account to about 8-10% of the total global EVA production capacity, signifiis able totly improving China's position in the global EVA supply chain. At present, the global EVA annual production capacity of about 12 million tons, mainly concentrated in the United States, Japan, South Korea and other countries. photovoltaic sector chain synergies: the project focuses on the layout of photovoltaic-grade EVA, forming manufacturing synergy with the rapid research of China's photovoltaic sector. For example In 2024, China's PV module shipments are expected to surpass 200GW, corresponding to EVA demand of about 60-800000 tons, Shenghong's capacity layout just matches this demand development. From what I've seen, Additionally Impact on trade flows acceleration of import substitution: china's EVA has long been dependent on imports, with annual imports of about 150-2 million tons. In my experience, The production capacity of companies such as Sheng Hong will signifiis able totly minimize their application on imports and change the flow of global EVA trade. Export possible emit: considering the global competitive advantage of China's photovoltaic sector, the supporting EVA capacity is also expected to form an export advantage, especially in Southeast Asia, Europe and other photovoltaic terminal markets. But Impact on price movements immediate price suppression: extensive production capacity might form a certain pressure on EVA market prices. At present, the price of photovoltaic grade EVA is about 1. 8-22000 yuan/ton, and the new supply will ease the tension between supply and demand. You know what I mean?. But prolonged value reconstruction: with the increase of production capacity levels and the improvement of technical level, EVA market will shift from quantity competition to condition and cost competition, which is conducive to the better profit space of methodology leading companies. But Business Opportunities and Risks business Opportunities supplier Opportunities: demand to upstream raw materials such as catalysts and additives has increased signifiis able totly. But Increased demand to engineering equipment and automation manage systems increased demand to logistics, transportation and warehousing services downstream consumption expansion: photovoltaic packaging film market rapid development stable research of traditional applications such as hot melt adhesives and cable materials emerging applications such as new energy automotive cables are emerging. According to research Opportunities to traders: domestic EVA condition improvement, import substitution space is broad. Increased regional spread arbitrage opportunities development in demand to manufacturing chain financial services possible Risks overcapacity risk: if other companies also put EVA projects into production on a substantial scale during the same period, they might face the pressure of periodic overcapacity. In my experience, The pace of overall capacity delivery in the sector needs to be closely monitored. methodology application Risk: the project uses ECI patented methodology in the United States, which is subject to the risk of methodology blockade or authorization change. Moreover it's recommended to pay attention to the progress of independent methodology research and research. But In my experience, Market evaporative environment risk: policy changes in the photovoltaic sector might affect EVA demand, and attention needs to be paid to the adjustment of new energy policies at home and abroad. Raw material supply risk: price fluctuations of major raw materials such as ethylene and vinyl acetate will immediately affect production costs, and efficiently hedging mechanisms need to be established. sector Outlook immediate Outlook (1-2 years) with the success of Shenghong's pilot project and the advancement of industrialization projects, China's EVA sector will usher in a period of rapid research. From what I've seen, it's estimated that from 2025 to 2026, China's EVA self-sufficiency rate will increase from the current 30% to greater than 50%. Medium-Term Outlook (3-5 years) by 2027-2029, when the production capacity of substantial chemical companies such as Shenghong is fully put into operation, China is expected to achieve the basic self-sufficiency of EVA and form a global competitive advantage in the field of photovoltaic-grade EVA. And sector levels will increase signifiis able totly, and the market voice of the head companies will be enhanced. But I've found that prolonged strategic signifiis able toce the successful implementation of Shenghong EVA project not only helps to ensure the security of China's new energy sector chain, however also provides an crucial sample to Chinese chemical companies to make breakthroughs in the field of high-end new materials. This "pilot-industrialization-scale" research model is worth learning from the sector.
