Its different driving forces make for a complex titanium dioxide market. Another important factor is the larger titanium dioxide market, which goes into paints and coatings as well as plastics and paper products. Surfing the wave In a world swept by processes of global urbanization and industrialization, these two industries are an important source for demand in titanium dioxide.
The availability and pricing of raw material are elements in market dynamics. Minerals such as ilmenite and rutile are the source of titanium dioxide, from which in turn prices and quantities available depend. Increasingly high raw material prices involve changes in the mining laws, geopolitical factors and lack of supply chain. Thus, they affect the market as a whole. These factors must be considered by firms in securing stable, low-cost supply chains for the titanium dioxide market.
Titanium dioxide: The environmental laws and sustainability efforts have a great impact on the titanium dioxide market. Ecology and environmentally friendly products are also in vogue because of the rising public consciousness about environmental problems. Such high environmental demands require titanium dioxide manufacturers to continuously innovate production methods as well as products themselves. Sustainable production methods have been introduced to the market as an added-value attribute which directly determines end consumer preferences and trends.
The titanium dioxide market is also heavily affected by international economic conditions. Construction, automotive production and other industrial out put are also reduced by economic recessions. This further reduces titanium dioxide's demand. But when the economy is booming for reasons of more infrastructure investment and industrial activity, demand for titanium dioxide increases. Therefore the market is inherently very sensitive to large movements--before you can get your position right, you've gotto understand economic activities as a whole.
As new technical developments and innovations emerge, the titanium dioxide market is constantly taking on a different shape. Currently, everything is about increasing productivity. As for product quality and high-tech oligople: those firms with deep pockets in R & D literally live at the cutting edge of industry. This gives them an advantage over their competitors. Secondly, as advanced manufacturing processes are developed, this stimulates the whole titanium dioxide market.
