Flat Glass in China NEW Industry forecasts for 2013 & 2018

This study analyzes the Chinese flat glass industry by product type and market. Flat glass demand is presented at two levels. This study examines the industry at both the primary flat glass level (float and sheet) and the fabricated flat glass level (safety, insulating, mirrors, conductive and other). Primary flat glass that is used directly by end users without further alteration is referred to as unfabricated primary flat glass, while primary flat glass that is ultimately used as an input to make other flat glass types is referred to as fabricated primary flat glass. Markets include architectural, motor vehicle, electronicdisplays and other. Product capacity figures are presented in metric tons and product capacity expansion data included in this study are based on announcements as of January 2010. The term “shipments” is defined as production less quantities entered into or removed from inventories. Excluded from the scope of the study are raw materials used in the production of flat glass (e.g., lime, limestone, silica sand and soda ash).

The Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau are excluded from the scope of this study. Both Hong Kong and Macau remain to a great extent economically independent from the rest of China, even though they returned to the People’s Republic of China in the late 1990s. Taiwan, which is economically independent from the rest of China and not under the administration of the central government, is also excluded from the scope of this study.
