【Haichuan Chemical Salary Updates】TDI plant maintenance is concentrated in May, with suppliers’ supply continuing to decline
Thread Content
TDI plant maintenance is concentrated in May, leading to a continuous reduction in the supply from suppliers. Of the 8 TDI suppliers, those with planned shutdowns for maintenance in May are Shanghai BASF and Shanghai Covestro; there are rumors that Shanghai BASF may resume operations in the latter part of the month for its regular annual maintenance. The maintenance schedule for Wanhua Chemical’s plants is not yet clear, but it is assumed that Wanhua will also have maintenance plans in June. Currently, the operating rate of TDI plants in China is 59%. By mid-May, BASF’s 160,000 tons per year production facility in Shanghai was shut down again for maintenance, along with Covestro’s 310,000 tons per year facility; both TDI plants will be out of service for maintenance for approximately 2–3 weeks.
