From 2016 to 2018, the TPU film industry developed rapidly in the domestic market and has become a TPU is the largest downstream field outside the shoe material industry, and TPU film It is widely used, so that it has sufficient development space and potential for a long period of time in the future.
TPUThe application range of the film is gradually shifting from the original key fields such as shoes, clothing, home textiles, luxury handbags to agriculture, medical , electronics, aerospace, military and other new fields. At the same time, TPU film is a new type of industrial material that can be continuously modified. It can be modified through raw material modification, material formula adjustment, production process optimization, etc. way to further optimize the performance of TPU film and expand the TPU >Film applications, thus endowing the TPU film market with strong and continuous vitality. In 2018, although the TPU film market growth slowed down, its market growth rate reached more than 15%. In the future, with the in-depth research and development of TPU film products, and With the improvement of the technical level of the TPU film industry, the application fields of TPU films will continue to expand.
In 2018, the main downstream applications of TPU film: film for shoes, clothing, bags, airbags and other fields.
In 2018, the consumption of TPU for films in China was around 67,000 tons. At present, TPU thin film products are mainly used in the low-end consumption field, and the mid-to-high-end market is mainly occupied by Taiwan, China and European and American companies. TPU enterprises in Taiwan, Europe and America have relatively mature technology and stable product performance. The market’s high demand for TPU film performance will promote TPU >The improvement of thin-film process technology has brought about new developments in the industry, and its application prospects are very broad.
In the past 3 years, the TPU thin film market has developed rapidly. But the high-end market potential is still full. However, the TPU film industry has a high degree of dispersion, and TPU in China A> There are many thin film “small workshops”, and the products are mainly low-end. With the development of the industry, the market concentration will gradually increase in the future. Large-scale TPUManufacturers will gradually seize market share.
At present, domestic TPU film production is mainly divided into two processes: casting and blow molding, and domestic enterprises mainly use the casting process as the core. Lord, there are very few companies using blow molding technology. Among them, Zhongshan Boruisi, Taiwan Dingji and Zhejiang Huanlong New Materials are among the best in this industry. TPU film manufacturers include Xionglin New Material, Zhongshan Boruisi, Shenzhen Gaoxiang, Zhejiang Jiayang Plastic, Zhejiang Huanlong New Material, Changshu Hongyuan, Taiwan Dingji, etc.
