China Chemicals Sector Report 2018/2022

The chemicals sector is one of the key pillars of the Chinese economy. It comprises five major subsectors – agricultural chemicals, basic chemicals, synthetic materials, coating and dyestuff, and special purpose chemicals. Over the past two decades, China’s chemicals sector has maintained rapid growth driven by the demand on both domestic and external markets. However, the rapid expansion of the production and the normalisation of the Chinese economy’s overall growth in the past few years have resulted in overcapacity, which, along with handling the environment-related problems, is among the major challenges to the sector. Moreover, the production of chemicals is undergoing a substantial shift from basic chemical processing to high-end chemical products manufacturing.
