The High Productivity of Glass Industry Brings Excess Capacity

(China Glass Network) The high productivity of glass industry brings excess capacity. The glass industry steps in positive situation of supply-exceed-demand. De-stocking is now the most significant thing in glass industry. Along with large-scale development and construction in east-central region, glass enterprises in this region formed a large scale. Some manufacturers from Hebei, Shandong, Jiangsu, and Guangdong have the profession representative. The glass industry sets a hard and fast rule in layout of glass manufacturer, glass crafts and equipment, glass variety and quality, energy consumption, environment protection, safety, sanitation, social responsibility and supervision and administration. It not only improves the access threshold but also control the volume of production and the scale of glass industry. For the most glass enterprises, the cost of a production line is very high. Normally, the service life of a regular production line is 7 to 8 years, and a good one can last 15 years. Once the production line is put into operation, it can not be shut down arbitrarily to control the output and stock like other industry. For the past few years, our glass industry is in rapid development. The quality improves, the variety adds and the output rises. Our nation implemented new regulation policy in real estate industry in last year. The demand of building glass declined sharply and the entire glass industry entered the depression period. Glass industry is a high energy consumption and high pollution industry. It has a relative high requirement to the processing machinery such as grinding machine, crushing machine and sand making machine. Now the market desires for the appearance of energy-saving machine. In order to response to the twelfth five-year planning, we should regulate investment behavior, avoid the repeated construction and blind investment, promote the transformation of industry structure and realize the sustainable development of glass industry.
