The Chinese copper sulfate industry is fiercely competitive and the market supply is sufficient
Current Development Status of Copper Sulfate Industry
Copper sulfate is widely used in various fields of agricultural production, not only for producing other copper salts, electroplating copper, non-ferrous metal beneficiation, but also as insecticides, fungicides, preservatives, catalysts, additives, fertilizers, etc. Its application value and market prospects are very broad. With the continuous improvement of downstream demand areas, the production of copper sulfate in China has been increasing year by year. According to competition analysis of the copper sulfate industry, in recent years, the background of the epidemic has led to fluctuations in the export market to a certain extent. China's copper sulfate production has increased from 424000 tons in 2018 to 482000 tons in 2022, and the overall demand for copper sulfate has increased from 408300 tons in 2018 to 471400 tons. As demand for agriculture and other industries continues to grow, There is still significant room for improvement in the industry.
The current copper sulfate market has sufficient supply. The production capacity of major chemical and steel enterprises for copper sulfate is strong enough to meet market demand. However, despite sufficient supply, there is fierce competition in the market, and price competition is extremely fierce. Due to the high degree of homogenization of copper sulfate products, competition among manufacturers is mainly reflected in price. Therefore, copper sulfate manufacturers need to increase their competitiveness by improving product quality and expanding application areas.
The competition analysis of the copper sulfate industry mentions that on a global scale, the main producers of copper sulfate include large domestic non-ferrous metal enterprises such as Jiangxi Copper Group Co., Ltd., Jinchuan Group Co., Ltd., and Northern Rare Earth Group Co., Ltd. They have a strong market position and scale advantage in the copper sulfate industry. The market share of copper sulfate is mainly monopolized by a few large enterprises, which have strong production capacity, technological strength, and sales network, occupying the main market share.
