Overcapacity Jilin coatings enterprises are thinking twice

China Paint Network
:
" not long ago, the Ministry of Finance Tax Department pointed out that the "
paint
collection of consumption tax policy interpretation" pointed out that high VOC (volatile organic compounds) coatings were levied consumption tax has become a fact, the second half of the paint downstream industry may also levy VOC sewage charges. At that time, the traditional solvent-
coating enterprises will
shuffle, transformation and development is imminent. "A few days ago,
he said, the paint industry consumes 25% to 30% of the total domestic solvent consumption of organic solvents each year, ranking first in the pesticide, pharmaceutical, rubber and other solvent industry.
it is understood that the paint industry VOC emissions are mainly composed of two parts, one is produced by the production process, part is the use of the process volatile out. Among them, solvent-based coatings have the greatest risk of contamination, whether it is the production of raw materials or thinners, most containing benzene, alcohol, esters and other volatile organic matter.
facing more and more stringent national environmental protection policies and the relevant taxes to be increased, the paint industry itself is already at the forefront of overcapacity, many enterprises have a meager profit margin, solvent-based coatings enterprises in the future where to go?
To this end, Jilin Province, Sotian Coatings Co. , Ltd., the head of Mr. Yan said that a wide variety of coatings,
water-based coatings
,
powder coatings
radiation curing coatings, high-solidification coatings and other "saving, environmentally friendly" coatings have been rapidly developed. Therefore, coating enterprises in the process of product restructuring, research and development of environmentally friendly low VOC coating products is imperative, and this is also related to the survival and development of enterprises. At present, domestic solvent-free nitro paint, epoxy paint and water-based paint are among these environmentally friendly products. "Our company has also made bold attempts in this regard, and achieved phased results, and strive to achieve within 3 years, solvent-based coatings to all production, exit." Mr. Gong said.
, he also admitted that the current domestic paint industry research and development level is still lagging behind developed countries. In the overall coatings market, the proportion of such products is much lower than in developed countries. At present, as a representative of zero VOC coatings, powder coatings and water-based coatings in the paint industry has attracted great attention, high solid sub-coating varieties have made great progress, coating research and development personnel need to make more exploration in this regard.
his views were shared by the late manager of another paint company. He also expressed concern that sales revenue fell 15.2% last year from the previous year as market competition in the last two years has been fierce and the market share of micro-paint companies has been shrinking. Paint industry consumption tax collection, coupled with the downstream industry VOC sewage charges, production and operation pressure unprecedented, there is no more financial resources for new product research and development.

coating factory
Wang factory director said that the production of environment-friendly paint products is the future development of the choice, but this requires time and financial resources, material resources to back up. As things stand, solvent-based coatings have not been able to completely exit the market for a long time. Therefore, solvent-based coating enterprises should be based on existing resources, improve production methods, create a closed and emission-free production environment, to achieve a smooth transition to green development.
He said that VOC pollution can start from improving the process, formula, appropriately reduce the feeding temperature, change the feeding method or use non-toxic low volatile raw materials, improve the degree of automation, reduce human factor deviation, so that accurate measurement, process control accurate, to avoid the occurrence of bloating kettles, spillways and other accidents. Enterprises can also be through the introduction of advanced equipment, completely change the current simple soil law on the workshop-style production methods, so that production as far as possible in a closed, non-polluting system, to achieve zero emissions or ultra-low emissions of the external environment.
, Mr. Gong said, the entire paint industry is in disarray, many irregular enterprises through covert production and other ways to avoid the national environmental protection policy. And formal paint enterprises invested a lot of financial and material resources for environmental protection, increased product costs, in the market price does not have an advantage, so there is a "regular army" obviously fight but "hybrid army" phenomenon, so that formal enterprises are very injured.
"This is the main reason why many companies are reluctant to invest more in environmental protection." Therefore, the relevant departments of the state should make a heavy effort to rectify the industry chaos, establish a fair and transparent competitive environment, which is to promote the healthy development of the industry. Mr. Gong said.
addition, some industry insiders also suggested that paint enterprises can also introduce advanced technology, mergers and reorganization and other ways to eliminate technology, capital and other aspects of the short board, break the deadlock, to achieve a green turn.
Jilin Province Huma Environmental Protection Coatings Co., Ltd. is one such enterprise. They successfully introduced foreign advanced technology, mainly calcium powder,
titanium dioxide
,
kaolin
and other non-toxic, inorient minerals to do fillers, water as solvents, with natural colored sand as pigments, products with odorless, non-polluting, invaricient color and other properties.Lin Yang, general manager of
Company, said: "Our core technology is to make 'water-repulsive' silicone hydro-hydro, so that the coating to achieve the 'breathable and impermeable' special properties, not only environmental protection, but also effectively prevent water on the building penetration erosion, but also has anti-fouling." "
is just one of those success stories, and there are still a lot of paint companies, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, that are not doing well in this area. The reason is, on the one hand, there is not enough money to introduce technology, on the other hand, small enterprises hand in hand with large enterprises to carry out mergers and reorganization of the slow pace, the effect of its transformation and development remains to be seen.
" in short, the tax is to force the transformation of enterprises. Paint enterprises must face up to this reality, from the process and product aspects, to develop environmentally friendly products, which will be the next 5 years of the paint industry development of the only way. Liu Zhongyi said.
