Continuous expansion of glass fiber production capacity and overweight of upstream calcium raw materials: the company announced that it plans to invest 680 million yuan in the cold repair and transformation of the 120000 ton glass fiber production line in Tongxiang base, and the production capacity will be increased to 200000 tons after completion. In addition, in order to meet the demand for calcium raw materials for glass fiber production in Jiujiang glass fiber intelligent manufacturing base, the company plans to invest 112 million yuan to build an intelligent deep processing project with an annual output of 200000 tons of glass fiber grade calcium oxide and 75000 tons of calcium carbonate environmental protection new materials. After the completion of the project, the company can further expand its scale and cost advantages.
The demand for glass fiber is still strong, but the supply continues to increase and the price may be under pressure: on the demand side, the high prosperity of glass fiber export is expected to continue, and the market demand for wind power, new energy vehicles and green energy-saving building materials in China will continue to be strong during the year. On the supply side, according to Zhuo Chuang information, the total new ignition capacity of the industry in 2021 was about 1.05 million tons, about 400000 tons of production lines were ignited and put into operation in the first half of 2022, and the new capacity gradually reached production in the second half of 21. The continuous increase of supply will bring great downward pressure on prices. We expect roving prices to remain stable, while electronic yarn prices are stable and weak.
