China's Aluminum-plastic Composite Panel Market Status

In order to predict and expand the market of aluminum-plastic composite panels, strengthen the management of the aluminum-plastic composite panels industry, provide information to the relevant national management departments to formulate industry development policies, and effectively guide the market to a benign development, China Building Materials Industry Association Aluminum-plastic composite materials The branch conducted a preliminary study on the market and production of aluminum-plastic composite panels in recent years through visits to companies and markets, and random form surveys. Due to the limitations of the investigation, some conclusions are drawn by inference methods, which contain subjective consciousness and can only be used as a reference.

1. The basic situation of enterprises in the aluminum-plastic board industry

From the end of 2002 to the beginning of 2003, the Association surveyed 18 companies that could basically represent the level of my country's aluminum-plastic board industry. The survey results are as follows:

These 18 companies have a total of 52 aluminum-plastic panel composite production lines. In 2002, they produced 22.25 million square meters of internal wall panels (its 12.97 million square meters in China and 9.28 million square meters of non-standard panels) and 12.85 million square meters of external wall panels (9.28 million in China). Square meters, non-standard board 3.11 million square meters).

Based on the above results and the understanding of various aspects, preliminary statistics estimate that there are currently 130-150 aluminum-plastic board production enterprises in the country, and 200-250 composite production lines. The total production capacity is about 200 million square meters, and the actual production is nearly 80 million~1. 100 million square meters.

2. Industry development trends

After entering this century, the production volume of the aluminum-plastic composite panel industry is developing at a rate of 30% to 40% annual growth. The survey shows that the number of aluminum-plastic composite panels companies has increased significantly. It can be considered that aluminum-plastic composite board products have been gradually recognized by the market, and the market cultivation stage has been completed, and it is entering a mature period.

3. Overview of the aluminum-plastic panel market

According to information, the construction area of China's construction industry is currently about 1.4 billion square meters per year, of which the construction curtain wall industry (exterior wall) is 20 million to 30 million square meters per year, plus the renovation and reconstruction of old buildings, the total amount is about 40 million. Square meters. The potential for interior wall decoration is even greater. Due to the short life cycle of decoration, it is difficult to anticipate its specific figures. However, the total output value of my country's construction and decoration industry is 720 billion yuan, with an annual growth rate of 20%. This data can illustrate the potential of the market. In the past year or two, exports of domestically produced aluminum-plastic composite panels and their production lines have grown from scratch and have shown a significant increase. The main markets are Southeast Asia, West Asia and Russia. Due to the advantages of low price and low international competition, aluminum-plastic composite panels are expected to have considerable international market potential, and specific data is still under investigation.

Although the figures indicate that in the short term (5 years), my country's decoration market is driven by the rapid development of the Chinese economy and external factors such as the Beijing Olympics and Shanghai World Expo, there are reasons to be optimistic about its market potential. However, as far as the aluminum-plastic composite panel industry is concerned, the overall situation and reality cannot be optimistic. At present, the problems that have emerged mainly include the following:

1. The overheated development of the industry, a large number of businessmen blindly invested, making the supply and demand of aluminum-plastic board products imbalance. This problem is an example of external wall aluminum-plastic panels (GB engineering panels). Only 18 domestic statistical data have an annual output of 9.28 million square meters, which accounts for almost 1/3 to 1/2 of the national curtain wall construction. The output of external wall panels nationwide clearly exceeds the total curtain wall project of 20 million to 30 million square meters. This means that even if all projects use aluminum-plastic panels, there is also an imbalance between supply and demand.

The solution is to expand the international market and eliminate or merge some companies with poor management and poor quality.

2. The industry is impacted by other materials. In recent years, exterior wall aluminum-plastic composite panels have been impacted by aluminum honeycomb panels, pure single aluminum panels, aluminum-aluminum composite panels and other products in the metal curtain wall industry. This situation is not entirely an external cause of technological progress and development. More is that the industry does not deeply study the technical characteristics of aluminum-plastic composite panels, strengthen product quality and construction specifications, so that users and designers As a result of the loss of confidence, the aluminum-plastic composite board gave up the market share it had occupied for other products.

The solution is to speed up the revision of the product quality standards of aluminum-plastic composite panels and formulate the application specifications of aluminum-plastic composite panels construction. Carry out research on the technical characteristics of aluminum-plastic composite panels and compare the performance with other materials. Expand new products (fireproof board and post grain, wood grain board, etc.), and strengthen product promotion.

3. The price war within the aluminum-plastic composite panel industry has led to a decline in product quality throughout the industry. Due to the oversupply of products, causing market confusion, the quality of products is very different. The low-grade aluminum-plastic composite panel impacts the entire aluminum-plastic composite panel market, causing great losses to famous-brand aluminum-plastic composite panel companies.

The solution is: It is recommended that the relevant departments implement a strict access (or filing) system for aluminum-plastic composite panel enterprises, strict product quality standards and construction application specifications for aluminum-plastic composite panel products, and gradually place plates that do not meet product standards (the so-called non- Standard board) Eliminate the aluminum-plastic composite board industry, advocate high quality and high price, and provide consumers with explicit information through certification, signs and other means.

4. Strengthen the quality supervision and market management of the aluminum-plastic board industry

The industry competent department of aluminum-plastic composite panels is the China Building Materials Industry Association Aluminum-plastic Composite Building Materials Branch. Its role is to assist the government to maintain the market order and industry management of building materials aluminum-plastic composite materials, maintain the legal rights of enterprises, and play between the government and enterprises. The role of bridges and bonds serves the building materials aluminum-plastic composites industry and promotes the healthy development of building materials aluminum-plastic composites companies. The current quality of aluminum-plastic composite panels has reached the point where the entire industry will face a dead end if it is no longer strictly managed.

  5. Future development of aluminum-plastic panels

Although there are various problems mentioned above for the aluminum-plastic board, it is only an episode in the development process. The key to solving the problem lies with ourselves. As long as we conscientiously sum up experience and lessons, pay close attention to product quality, and abide by the rules of the game, we still have reason to believe that the aluminum-plastic industry has its strong vitality. In recent years, we are happy to find that many enterprises in the industry have made great progress in product quality, engineering quality, and economic benefits, and have gradually formed a brand effect in the industry. The products are also accepted by users, and the projects of using aluminum-plastic panels in large areas are gradually increasing.

In order to maintain and develop the aluminum-plastic panel market, we will take a series of measures to regulate the market. These include: revision of national standards; formulation of construction technical specifications; recommendation of industry famous brands and Chinese famous brand products, etc. There is only one purpose, to make the aluminum-plastic board industry stronger and stronger, and to continuously develop this new type of building decoration materials along the road of continuous development.
