opportunities in the glass industry under the new normal economy

Construction requirements. As China is a country with a large population, the housing demand is also a huge data. The large population is accompanied by eating, drinking, housing and transportation, which is also an opportunity for the glass industry from the side.

According to the building materials consultancy report of the Chinese academy of sciences, China's residential area reached 40 billion square meters in 2010, and this figure is constantly reaching new highs. China's urban area increases by an average of 1.125 billion square meters annually. The demolition and renovation of old houses and the construction of new houses are also essential to the demand for glass, especially for urban buildings, which are mainly glass buildings to win people's love.

If the building needs 0.4 square meters of glass per square meter, the calculation. Demand for glass alone is 450 million square meters (about 90 million weight cases) a year.

The rise of second - and third-tier cities has increased the demand for glass. According to the national census data, in terms of provincial-level units with a population of about 60 million, the urban area increases by 35.42 million square meters per year. In 2011, many provincial capitals and developed cities in China began to use energy-saving and environment-friendly insulating glass. There is also a growing demand for more types of glass.

Demand from the auto industry. From the perspective of China's auto industry, the rapid rise of China's auto industry has also brought good news to the glass industry. Byd, chery, Great Wall, jianghuai and other Chinese auto industries started late, but have large capacity. The annual output has exceeded 20 million in 2013. With the improvement of automobile performance, the proportion of glass in the automobile has also been greatly increased. In 1990, the glass demand for each car was about 3.5 square meters. In 2000, the glass demand for each car was about 3.85 square meters. At present, each car at least 4 square meters of glass consumption.

Glass can make the vehicle look more beautiful, reduce the resistance in driving, greatly reducing fuel consumption. The performance and function of the glass in various positions of the car are also greatly different, and the technical requirements for the glass material are even different. According to the different USES can be divided into: safety glass, laminated glass, tempered glass, district tempered glass. For the glass alone to take, the processing also needs the bigger cost. According to statistics from the national transportation administration.

In the amount of glass used in automobile parts, on the one hand, the glass is recycled; On the other hand, China's glass market is not fully adapted to the balance of supply and demand. This is a stimulus for the glass industry.

Demand for electronic products. Electronic products in daily life, such as mobile phones, computers, televisions and other highly information-based high-tech products rely more on ultra-thin sensitive glass. They are extremely demanding on the glass, no impurities, wear resistance, anti - sun, no cracks, and so on. Just before 2000, 10 million square meters of ultra-thin glass were introduced into China in order to vigorously develop electronic products. Then the demand for household electronic products glass is increasing year by year. Demand for ultra-thin glass reached 20 million square meters in 2015. If you add up the glass needs we have in our lives, the number is even larger.
