CHINAPLAS has a good effect, but the long-term market price of titanium dioxide remains to be observed

In late April, the titanium dioxide price market was in a period of temporary stability after a price increase. After more than 20 manufacturers announced a price increase last week, many manufacturers are now implementing price increases. Unlike the previous hot market situation, users have significantly slowed down their acceptance of this round of price increases. Some users have raw material reserves in the early stage, so they currently have no purchasing intention. Another group of essential users have a strong desire to lower prices for new orders, and they are also a bit overwhelmed by such frequent and significant price increases.

HYYCHEM Rutile Introduction

Rutile is a mineral rich in titanium dioxide, commonly known as titanium-rich material. Its titanium dioxide content can reach over 95%, making it an important mineral raw material for titanium refining, but its reserves in the Earth's crust are relatively low.

Titanium Dioxide Prices Rise Three Times in March; Sulfur and Sulfuric Acid Market Analysis Included (March 23–27)

In late March, the titanium dioxide market witnessed a highly unexpected turn of events. The LB Group issued three consecutive price hike notices during the month—a rare occurrence in the last two decades—resulting in a cumulative increase of 2,000 RMB per ton. In response, the domestic market also saw three waves of price increases. As of March 27, more than twenty manufacturers had successively issued price hike notices. The primary reasons driving this sustained upward trend in prices are twofold: the supply side holds a substantial backlog of orders, and the prices of key raw materials—sulfur and sulfuric acid—remain consistently firm.

China's titanium dioxide exports reached approximately 171,800 tons in December 2025

According to customs data, my country exported 171,800 tons of titanium dioxide in December 2025, representing a year-on-year increase of 8.49% and a month-on-month increase of 12.88%. Of this, 127,700 tons were exported via the sulfuric acid process, a month-on-month increase of 8.49%; and 44,200 tons were exported via the chloride process, a month-on-month increase of 27.83%.

TiO₂ 2026 Opens Higher, Creating a Short-Term Buying Window

The main driver remains raw material costs. Sulfur and sulfuric acid prices stay high. In some regions, particularly in Southwest China, producers struggle to secure a sufficient supply. Several plants are running at lower rates or have stopped production. As a result, raw material costs are unlikely to decrease in the short term. Policy measures aim to stabilize the supply of sulfur and sulfuric acid. However, these measures take time to show results. Cost pressure continues to support TiO₂ prices.
