II. Market Analysis

Titanium dioxide producers continue to face cost pressures, with most maintaining firm pricing while adopting a wait-and-see approach. With the peak sales season of September and October approaching, market participants anticipate stockpiling. Holders show no intention to continue selling at low prices, leading to higher quoted prices. Currently, domestic rutile-type titanium dioxide produced by the sulfuric acid process is mostly quoted between CNY 13,200 and CNY 14,200 per ton; anatase-type is around CNY 11,700 to CNY 12,500 per ton. Actual transaction prices are negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
