Abstract
Flat glass demand in China to increase 7.9% annually through 2013
Demand for flat glass in China is forecast to rise 7.9 percent per year
through 2013 to 2.7 billion square meters. Measured in value terms, flat glass
demand is expected to rise 11.3 percent per year, reaching 130 billion yuan.
Sales of flat glass will benefit from government spending initiatives -- such
as the construction of affordable and low-rent houses and physical
infrastructure -- many of which were designed to offset the effects of the
global economic downturn. In addition, ongoing industrialization, rising
income levels, further population and household growth, expanding motor
vehicle production, trends favoring larger LCD panel size and expansions of
solar cell projects will fuel flat glass sales in China through the forecast
period.
Fabricated flat glass to enjoy strong growth
Two major trends are occurring within the China flat glass industry, both of
which will boost value gains. First, float glass will continue to replace less
expensive sheet glass in many markets. Second, high value fabricated glass
will increasingly be used in lieu of nonfabricated glass as consumers insist
on better performing building materials.
Safety glass demand (including tempered and laminated) is projected to
increase 13.2 percent per year through 2013, benefiting from rising income
levels and expanding building stock. Moreover, strong growth in motor vehicle
production will also stimulate new safety glass sales.
Insulating glass is forecast to grow 11.8 percent annually through 2013. Gains
will be boosted by healthy growth in construction of residential and
commercial buildings, schools and hospitals.
A variety of other fabricated flat glass products will register fast-paced
growth through 2013. Product gains will be driven by rising numbers of new
nonresidential buildings (e.g., offices, banks, luxury hotels, shopping malls,
hospitals, schools, museums and theaters), fast increases in production of
large LCD TV and other electronic displays, and rising output of solar cells.
Electronic displays to be fastest growing market
The architectural market will remain dominant through 2013, when sales will
approach 2.4 billion square meters. Advances will be bolstered by rising
income levels, further urbanization and government efforts to improve living
conditions for low-income earners and increase average living space per
capita. In addition, the expansion of high-end hotel chains in China will help
flat glass demand in this market. Demand for flat glass in the motor vehicle
market will benefit from rapid growth in motor vehicle output as global and
local automakers expand investment activity. The smaller electronic displays
market is forecast to rise at the fastest pace through 2013, driven by strong
increases in electrical/electronic product output, the innovation of new
glass-using products and rising personal income levels.
