The plastic pipe market has huge potential, and innovation will be the main driving force for industry development.
Plastic pipeline refers to the general name for pipes made of plastic materials, which are composed of pipes, pipe fittings, valves and other connecting parts. According to different chemical materials, plastic pipes can be divided into polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes, polyethylene (PE) pipes, polypropylene (PP) pipes, polybutylene (PB) pipes, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene ( ABS) pipe, UPVC pipe, etc. Plastic pipes have the characteristics of long life, energy conservation and environmental protection, easy installation, high compressive strength, light structural weight, and strong corrosion resistance. They are widely used in gas, electricity, building drainage, agricultural irrigation, urban drainage, industrial fluid transportation and other fields. .
In recent years, with the continuous increase of domestic infrastructure projects and the continuous development of social economy, plastic pipes have gradually replaced metal pipes and other traditional pipes as the mainstream products in the construction pipe market by virtue of their unique advantages, and their production and sales scale have continued to expand. According to the “In-depth Market Research and Investment Strategy Suggestions Report on Plastic Pipe Industry 2022-2026” released by the Industrial Research Center, in 2021 Domestic plastic pipe production is approximately 16.86 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 2.8%; the domestic plastic pipe market sales in 2021 will be 15.99 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 4.44%.
The upstream of the plastic pipe industry chain is polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride and other raw material suppliers; the midstream is domestic plastic pipe processing and manufacturing such as AD Co., Ltd., Weixing New Materials, Yonggao Co., Ltd., Cangzhou Mingzhu, China Lesso, and Gudi Plastic. business; the downstream areas include agricultural irrigation, building water supply, petrochemical industry, gas transmission, mining pipelines and other application fields.
Plastic pipes have low technical and financial barriers and low industry entry barriers. The huge market demand has attracted a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises to flood into the market, resulting in fierce competition in the domestic low-end market of plastic pipes and low industry concentration. But at the same time, after development in recent years, a number of leading companies with brand and technological advantages have emerged in China, including China Lesso, Satellite Building Materials, AD Shares, etc. In the future, as advantageous companies continue to improve their independent innovation capabilities and occupy more Domestic market share and domestic market structure will continue to be optimized, thereby promoting the continuous transformation and upgrading of the domestic plastic pipe industry from scale growth to quality improvement.
Industrial Analysts personnel said that in the future, with the increasing number of infrastructure projects such as domestic underground pipe networks, water conservancy systems, and water pollution prevention and control, domestic The market demand for plastic pipes will continue to increase, which in turn will drive the continuous optimization of its market competition structure and accelerate the transformation and upgrading of the industry. After recent years of development, the domestic plastic pipe industry has gradually entered a stable and mature stage from a rapid development stage. In the future, innovation-driven development will become the main driving force for the development of the domestic plastic pipe industry. The domestic plastic pipe market has huge potential.
