Summary of TMP Industry Insights Industry Overview - The document discusses the TMP (Trimethylolpropane) industry, focusing on supply and demand dynamics, as well as pricing trends. Key Points Supply Side Dynamics - The industry is experiencing capacity exits and shutdowns, with domestic manufacturers like Wanhua expected to exit and shut down approximately 100,000 tons/year of capacity by 2025 [1] - Overseas production is also affected, with Swedish company Perstorp's 50,000 tons/year capacity undergoing maintenance, expected to last until May 2026 [1] Demand Side Dynamics - There is a strong replenishment demand from downstream sectors, as inventory levels have reached zero [1] - Previously, TMP product prices were declining, leading to weak replenishment willingness; however, current conditions have resulted in zero inventory levels [1] Price Trends - The price of TMP has seen a significant increase, with Baichuan raising the TMP price to 15,000 yuan/ton as of February 9, 2026, with actual transactions occurring at this price [2] - Experts anticipate further price increases post-Chinese New Year due to widespread downstream holidays [3] Raw Material Costs - The price of key raw material, n-butyraldehyde, continues to rise, while calcium formate prices have decreased, leading to increased cost pressures for calcium-based manufacturers [2] Future Expectations - Experts predict that domestic companies will likely coordinate maintenance efforts, which will further drive prices upward [4] - Continuous monitoring of industry developments is planned to assess ongoing changes [5] Additional Information - The document invites further inquiries for detailed expert opinions or one-on-one discussions with the Dongwu Chemical team [6]
