Yangtze River Delta will become the largest multinational coatings giant cluster localization.

With Shanghai as the center of Yangtze River Delta region is attracting international paint magnate and China National paints a substantial investment of capital. At present such as Bayer integrated base in Shanghai, China Development Center, Dow many transnational paint magnates in the Yangtze River Delta in factories, many of the regional headquarters, development center, procurement centres have also settled in the Yangtze River Delta, the material flow within the region to an average of 30 percent annually, this is indeed a gold content of the "rich". Especially in recent years the wisdom found major paint companies in Yangtze River Delta investment and research and development activities presented a series of new features: from the development point of view, the transnational paint Giants investment began to develop localization phase, from research and development investment location, came to Shanghai as the Center to the periphery of accelerated diffusion; sources from the research and development investment, to paint by multinational giants, the gradual increase of national coatings capital, and gradually showing a wide range of trends. It can be said that the long triangle area in the coatings industry is developing rapidly, technological innovation and the application starts in a leading position, the more clear. trend clustering

2009 National 1348 home scale paint enterprises Statistics, 2009 China's paint output 755.44 million tons for the first time the world first. From regional production and output of paint to watch: 2009 China coating production top five are: 189.22 million tons in Guangdong Province, Jiangsu Province 93.45 million tons, Shanghai 79.64 million tons, 64.83 million tons in Shandong province, Zhejiang Province 49.41 million tons, total 479.55 tons 63.48 per country; the output value of the top five are: 480.81 billion, Jiangsu 358.40 billion, Shanghai 236.68 billion, Shandong 122.18 billion, Zhejiang 97.92 billion. Only include Zhejiang and Shanghai, the Yangtze River Delta region, 2009 the proportion of the national yield 29.45%. From China's paint industry zone layout, Guangdong years yield ranked, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Shandong, Zhejiang. From these data, revealing two important information: first, to Canton as the representative of the PRD is the traditional coatings Center; second, important paint output five provinces, Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang occupies three seats, the Yangtze River Delta of coating weight status strengthened, this is expected to become China's largest coatings cluster formation in growing.

2008 State Department issued a "on further advancing the reform and opening up the Yangtze River Delta region and the economic and social development of guidance, to the Yangtze River Delta regional integration brings unprecedented opportunities for development; at the same time, the global financial crisis has also let the long triangle coatings industry development brings unprecedented challenges. 2009 first State Council adopted ten industry revitalization plan for the coatings industry development opportunities, and is the property of warmer, electrical household appliances to the countryside, the automobile to the countryside on supporting industries powerful stimulation, architectural coatings, corrosion resistant coatings, automotive coatings, etc. are distinctly. Yet, the opportunities and challenges of the situation, the Yangtze River Delta of paint enterprises speed up economic development mode change and restructuring. In recent years, architectural coatings, wood coating, anti-corrosion Coatings, powder coatings, and other products on the technical, technological breakthroughs made, product quality has reached the overseas similar products in the advanced level, is moving in the direction of green environmental protection.

Compared to countries in West and central economic revitalization and Sichuan reconstruction strategy, led by the surge in demand for architectural coatings, Yangtze River Delta region coatings demand growth will rely more on regional economic takeoff. 2009 Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai add 71794 billion gross, Yangtze River Delta GDP more than $ 1 trillion for the first time, three older triangle 2009 GDP accounted for 21.4 per country. This means that with the integration of the Yangtze River Delta, Yangtze River Delta economic area against risk capacity and will increasingly become the engine of economic development. The central requirements of Yangtze River Delta region in 2012 to nationwide implementation of a well-off society in an target. The next few years in the various cities will continue to develop and introduce different levels of preferential policy to encourage and attract high value-added industrial presence, drive the local economy and speed up development. For example, in the field of automobile paint in 2009, China became the world's largest automotive consumer countries, Shanghai Automotive co., Ltd. and Shanghai Shen, SGM, svw etc car brand in 2009 annual vehicle sales for 272 million units, an increase of 57%. Press each car 25kg paint usage calculation, China's current annual new car consumes paint 34.48 million tons; plus keep car 10 thousand tons of refinish, 2009 automotive coatings production is estimated at 45 million tons. Take Shanghai for Yangtse Delta Faucet will greatly promote the consumption of automotive paint. In architectural coatings, Shanghai as the center of the surrounding the consumers have become more rational consumption of environmentally-conscious, high-quality civil construction decoration coating is better suited to the promotion of the Yangtze River Delta region. For example, in the high speed rail projects, with Shanghai to Suzhou, Hangzhou Intercity high-speed rail project's continuous inputs, as well as Shanghai, Ningbo, port construction of Yangtze River Delta, also bound to lead the anti-corrosion Coatings, ship paint.

At the same time, according to relevant data and statistics, it is expected that by 2010 only building materials, paint industry demand for titanium dioxide will reach 100 million tonnes. Consumption market mainly in southern and Eastern regions, according to statistics, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Fujian, Shandong, Jiangsu and Shanghai provinces accounted for the total consumption of the national total consumption by 70%. Including Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai-based long triangle area consumption accounted for domestic total consumption by 30%. The most benefit from the Yangtze River Delta, the rapid development of coatings industry.

Overall, the coming period of Yangtze River Delta economic development leader, on the reform and opening up this role does not weaken, paint industry cluster status also further enhanced. In a period of time to come, the Yangtze River Delta region will be China's paint industry's fastest, most potential piece of land. At the same time, the Yangtze River Delta investment system of innovation at the same time stimulating the industry innovation, forming a & ldqu

O; industry – capital-industry ". Next, the Yangtze River Delta in the paint industry's investment and innovation will make the configuration more reasonable capital, will make the national economy the most developed areas of development is more scientific. Wisdom in this opinion, the Yangtze River Delta coating industry, I should move away from narrow "GDP complex", but on the basis of sustainable development principles to guide coating clean technology and production, while focusing on innovative technology coatings industry and capacity development. Coatings industry development and environmental protection standards and low-carbon technologies, and other indicators to measure, believe in the Yangtze River Delta of China's largest coatings industry cluster area will not be far away, and is full of infinite investment potential and vitality.
