China's paint production and consumption growth slowed down from January to April 2012

In the past decade or so, the paint industry has experienced a period of budding, growth, and an outbreak. Now the paint market has entered a relatively sluggish situation. Under such circumstances, the paint industry has ushered in the best period of transformation. During the period, China's paint industry is expected to emerge from this chaotic state of disorderly competition and truly achieve leapfrog development. China Merchants Information Network released the "2012-2016 China's new situation under the new situation of paint industry transformation and upgrading research report" data show that: January-April 2012, China's paint production reached 3.479 million tons, an increase of 11.2%; apparent consumption The volume reached 3.486 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 11.4%. From January to April 2012, China's imports of paint reached 56,000 tons, an increase of 17.9% year-on-year; exports were 49,000 tons, an increase of 7.1% year-on-year. In the next few years, the paint will still show a growing trend.

In the past few years, the coatings industry has made special progress in product styles, functional enhancements, and increased environmental protection, with more and more multifunctional products. Environmental applications such as living rooms, aisles, public places, and office space are also popular, with a large market demand and promising industrial prospects.

In the next five years, the focus of the development of China's paint industry is not to pursue higher growth rates, but to properly handle the significant relationship between growth rate and structure, quality, efficiency, and environmental protection, and to improve and enhance the overall quality of the industry, and strive to improve Technological innovation capabilities, international competitiveness and sustainable development capabilities. In January 2012, the State Council officially issued the "Industrial Transformation and Upgrade Plan (2011-2015)" (hereinafter referred to as "Planning"). This is the first comprehensive plan for the medium and long-term plan issued by the State Council since the beginning of reform and opening up, and it will guide the direction of China's industrial development in the next five years.
