Titanium dioxide prices continue to rise in 2025

In 2025, the domestic titanium dioxide market began to rise in price. The leading enterprise Longbai Group has ushered in the second price increase this year, with a cumulative increase of more than 5%. This round of price increases has attracted widespread attention in the market. Industry insiders believe that cost push and demand recovery are the main reasons for the increase in titanium dioxide prices.

Price increase:

The first price increase: On January 21, 2025, many leading titanium dioxide companies announced an increase in product prices, ranging from 300 to 500 yuan per ton.

The second price increase: On February 20, 2025, the price of titanium dioxide was raised again, with an increase of 300 yuan per ton.

Analysis of the reasons for the price increase:

Cost push: The prices of titanium concentrate and sulfuric acid, the main raw materials for titanium dioxide production, continue to rise. Coupled with the rising energy prices, the production costs of enterprises have increased significantly.

Demand recovery: With the recovery of the domestic economy, the demand for downstream industries such as coatings and plastics has recovered, and the demand for titanium dioxide has increased.

Future price trend forecast:

Prices will remain high in the short term: Considering the cost support and supply and demand pattern, it is expected that the price of titanium dioxide will remain high in the short term.

Customers who have purchasing needs in the near future can purchase as soon as possible to avoid the impact of price increases.
