Oversea
market was still crucial for Chinese saccharin from Jan. 2012 to June 2012, according
to CCM’s September issue of Sweeteners
China News.
This can be reflected by the
latest data from China Saccharin Group (CSG), an organization under China Sugar
Association managing the production and sales of saccharin in China, the
percentage of the export volume of saccharin accounting for the total output
grew to 83.8% in H1 2012 from 74.5% in 2011, while that of domestic sales
volume dropped to 10.9% in H1 2012 from 15.8% in 2011. In detail, the export
volume and domestic sales volume of Chinese saccharin were about 8,531 tonnes
and 1,112 tonnes in H1 2012, increasing by 18.88% and 3.56% over the same
period of 2011 respectively while the total output of Chinese saccharin was
10,170 tonnes. However, due to the large stock of Chinese saccharin at the end
of June 2012, about 5,352 tonnes, it is predicted that the output of Chinese
saccharin will decrease in H2 over H1 of 2012.
Demand increase from Asia and
South America was one reason for the increasing export volume of Chinese
saccharin in H1 2012, according to two main saccharin producers in China , Henan
Kaifeng Xinghua Fine Chemical Factory (Kaifeng Xinghua) and Tianjin Changjie
Chemicals Co., Ltd. (Tianjin Changjie). The two companies explained that the
export volume of the product got improved in H1 2012 over H1 2011 as Chinese
saccharin producers have actively developed customers in Asia and South America in H1 2012, which made the demand from the
two regions increase during the period. For example, according to data from
China Customs, Germany, Brazil and India were top three export destinations of
Chinese saccharin in H1 2012, with import volumes of 967 tonnes, 734 tonnes and
584 tonnes, increasing by -5.1 %, 20.3% and 96.6% over H1 2011 respectively.
In fact, Chinese saccharin
capacity was 19,100t/a in 2011, taking up about 70% of the global total and
most saccharin made in China
was exported in past years.
Besides, the low export price of
Chinese saccharin provided the basis for the increasing export volume of
Chinese saccharin in H1 2012. In fact, the export price of Chinese saccharin
decreased further in H1 2012: the average export price of Chinese saccharin was
USD5,272.71/t in H1 2012, decreasing by 8.23% over H1 2011. Thanks to long-term
market competition and immense capacity, the export price of Chinese saccharin
has always been at a low level in the world in general, which can be traced
from many countries' anti-dumping measures on Chinese saccharin, including
India, Thailand, etc. However, since the capacity of saccharin in these
countries can't meet their demand for saccharin, they still have to import
saccharin from China .
Significantly, according to CCM
International's investigation, it is not only Chinese saccharin that enjoyed
good performance abroad in H1 2012, other common high intensity sweeteners
(HIS) did too, including sucralose, acesulfame-K, cyclamate, aspartame and
stevia sweeteners. For example, the export volume of sucralose and acesulfame-K
were about 690 tonnes and 4,600 tonnes in H1 2012, increasing by 137.6% and
11.6% over the same period of 2011 respectively. In fact, Chinese HIS industry
grows rapidly in the past years, especially in overseas market, because of the
increasing demand from abroad and the low export prices. Moreover, with the
development of production technology and capacity expansion of Chinese HIS,
Chinese HIS products will win more popularity in global market in the future.
