Reportstack Latest Report: Global and China Low-E Glass Industry Report, 2010-2011

Reportstack, provider of premium market research reports announces the addition of Global and China Low-E Glass Industry Report, 2010-2011 market report to its offering

Low emissivity glass (Low-E glass) is a kind of coated glass with lower radiation and higher energy conservation performance. From 1990 to 2010, the global sales volume of Low-E glass grew rapidly, breaking 680 million square meters in 2010, with an average annual compound growth rate of 19.2%. In recent years, countries around the world have issued policies to encourage energy-saving building materials, effectively promoting the development of Low-E glass industry.

Currently, Low-E glass is popular in developed countries. The Low-E glass penetration rate reached 93% in Germany, 92% in South Korea, and 79% in Poland, while only 10.2% in China, therefore, Low-E glass has great development potentials in China.

In recent years, China's Low-E glass output has increased year by year. Currently, there are about 20 Low-E production lines under construction, most with a designed capacity of about 3 million square meters and to be put into production in 2012-2013.

Low-E glass production lines are mainly concentrated in enterprises including CSG, Xinyi Glass, Yaohua Glass, and Yaohua Pilkington. Most of them adopt off-line technology and have expansion plans. For example, the industry leader CSG is engaged in the production of off-line Low-E glass, with production bases in Dongguan, Tianjin, Chengdu and Wujiang; its Low-E glass project under construction in Hubei Province with an annual output of 4.20 million square meters will be put into production in H2 2013.

This report focuses on the production costs, production lines, competition pattern, and demand in China Low-E glass industry, and analyzes the operating environment (including policy, social and technical environment) for this industry.

With respect to technology, China mainly introduces Low-E glass production technology from foreign countries. CSG has introduced a number of vacuum magnetron sputtering coating lines from Leybold of Germany and Airco of the United States; it is the first one to launch single silver Low-E glass, double silver Low-E glass, bended steel Low-E glass and other energy-saving building glass products in China.

As for companies, this report studies four multinational companies (PG Industries, NSG, AGC, and Saint-Gobain) and 12 Chinese companies (including CSG, Taiwan Glass, Xinyi Glass, and Yaohua Pilkington).

From January to August 2011, China produced 11,855,000 and sold 11,984,000 automobiles, up 3.04% and 3.33% year on year respectively. Specifically speaking, China produced 9,210,000 and sold 9,218,000 passenger cars, up 6.39% and 6.05% year on year respectively; China produced 2,645,000 and sold 2,765,000 commercial vehicles, down 7.16% and 4.81% year on year respectively.

Although the growth rate in Jan.-Aug. 2011 was much lower than that in the same period of 2010, China remains the world's largest automobile market. Chinese automobile market is undergoing structural changes, and medium and high-class sedans (especially luxury sedans) sell well.

From January to August 2011, Audi's global sales volume reached 853,000, up 17.4% year on year. Its sales volume was 152,800, 142,300 and 65,400 in China, Germany and the United States respectively, up 28.6%, 15.9% and 15.0% year on year separately. China has become Audi's largest market in the world, mainly driven by the purchase of the government with public funds.

From January to August 2011, Mercedes-Benz's global sales volume reached 867,400. Its sales volume was 165,500, 148,400 and 120,200 in Germany, the United States and China respectively, up 2.3%, 6.1% and 35.8% year on year separately.

From January to August 2011, BMW's global sales volume reached 1,073,400, up 16.8% year on year. Its sales volume was 196,300, 155,900 and 158,900 in Germany, the United States and China respectively, up 13.3%, 12% and 49.3% year on year separately.

Unlike luxury cars, economical passenger cars saw decline in the sales volume. Chinese local brands focus on economical passenger cars. In August 2011, China produced 1,393,000 and sold 1,381,100 automobiles, up 6.66% and 8.29% month on month or up 8.72% and 4.15% year on year respectively. However, the sales volume of Chinese local passenger car brands declined to 407,400, down 2.86% year on year.

The development of automotive safety system industry in 2011 is nearly same with that in 2010. The growth rate of the industry leader Autoliv is much higher than the industry average level. Autoliv will gain the revenue of over USD10 billion in 2011, up 13.3%.

The largest market of Japanese manufacturer Takata is the United States instead of Japan. The yen appreciation has led to the decline in the export of Takata. TRW has benefited from the Chinese market. TRW's largest customer is Volkswagen, which accounts for 20% of the revenue of TRW. Volkswagen is growing rapidly in China.

Japanese manufacturers suffer from the yen appreciation. Except Takata, Japanese manufacturers mainly produce seat belts and steering wheels with low technological content and market growth rate.

Reportstack Latest Report: China Solar Glass Industry Report, 2010-2015

Reportstack, provider of premium market research reports announces the addition of China Solar Glass Industry Report, 2010-2015 market report to its offering

In domestic photovoltaic glass industry, the ultra clear glass (including ultra clear rolled glass and ultra clear float glass) is a kind of product with mature technology. There are many ultra clear glass manufacturers in China whose capacity witnesses high growth. As of late 2009, the actual annual capacity of ultra clear rolled glass in China had exceeded 600,000 tons, making China the world’s largest ultra clear rolled glass producer.  

In contrast, there are not so many large-scale solar coated glass manufacturers in China. And the market is mainly dominated by NSG of Japan, Dawson International and AFG of the United States. Among existing domestic enterprises, Jiangsu Xiuqiang Glasswork and Changzhou Almaden Stock are the only two that can realize the mass production of coated anti-reflection film crystalline silicon solar cell glass, with the combined capacity approximating 20 million sq meters. Likewise, only a few domestic businesses including CSG Holding and Xinyi Glass Holdings Limited started the mass production of thin film solar cell TCO glass. There are broad prospects for domestic products to substitute for imports.
    
This Report mainly covers the following content:

Highlights of the current development of solar glass industry, market overview and competition pattern of crystal silicon solar cell glass and thin film solar cell glass in China, and demand prospect for the upcoming five years from the perspective of moderate growth and policy stimulus based on the glass demand per unit pack;

Introduction of the status quo, operation, major projects and operation models of 43 solar glass manufacturers in China;

Suggestions for concerned investors in line with the competition pattern among businesses as well as the status quo and demand prospect of domestic solar glass market.

Representative solar glass enterprises in China include large-scale groups like CSG Holding, as well as two solar glass processing companies, namely, Jiangsu Xiuqiang Glasswork and Changzhou Almaden Stock.

As of late 2010, the ultra clear rolled glass capacity of CSG Holding reached 12.5 million sq meters, and its solar glass capacity realized 460,000 sq meters. Presently, CSG Holding invested RMB499 million to build a 600T/D ultra clear rolled glass production line in Dongguan, a project that is expected to realize the full capacity in late 2011. In addition, it invested RMB510 million to construct a 4 million-sq m TCO glass production line, a project that is expected to realize the full capacity in late 2012.

Changzhou Almaden Stock (002623.SZ), listed on Shenzhen Exchange Stock in September 2011, is mainly engaged in the processing and manufacturing of photovoltaic anti-reflection glass with the glass sheets bought from other enterprises. The company, on the one hand, makes full use of the huge capacity of ultra clear glass in China, on the other hand, has made rapid breakthrough in the solar glass industry based on its own coating technology. As of late June, 2011, the coating processing capacity of the company realized 18 million sq meters. In H1 2011, the output of coating glass registered 10.8084 million sq meters.   

Jiangsu Xiuqiang Glasswork (300160.SZ) is mainly engaged in the production of home appliance chromatic crystallized glass and solar glass, and is the major supplier of solar battery businesses including LDK Solar and Canadian Solar Inc.

Reportstack: China Automotive Distribution Industry Report, 2011-2012

Reportstack, provider of premium market research reports announces the addition of China Automotive Distribution Industry Report, 2011-2012 market report to its offering

With the rapid growth of the automotive market, China is also accelerating the development of automotive distribution industry. According to the statistics of the Ministry of Commerce and China Automobile Dealers Association (CADA), in 2010 there were over 60,000 automotive distributors in China, including 15,000 4S stores, of which 1,700 were newly added for that year alone.

The Report mainly covers the following aspects:

     Automotive distribution models in China and their development characteristics, strengths and weaknesses;

     Development of automotive distributors in China, including quantity, profitability, development characteristics, etc.;

     Development of various automotive distribution businesses in China, covering the distribution model, characteristics and development prospect of new cars, used cars, auto repair and maintenance, auto finance, car insurance, etc.;

     Distribution network features of six car manufacturers in China, operation of 12 listed automotive distributors, current status and expansion of 4S distribution networks.

China automotive distribution industry has displayed two characteristics:

Automotive distributors show pretty obvious regional traits, which, however, with the distributors’ continuous expansion, will gradually wear off.
China’s large-scale automotive distributors are mainly concentrated in economically developed eastern, northern and southern regions, each with 1-2 large leading distributors, such as Pangda Group in Hebei, Yaxia Automobile in Anhui, and Grand Orient in Wuxi, Jiangsu.

However, along with the continuous expansion of automotive distributors, the regional traits will be gradually diluted, e.g., Zhejiang Material Industrial Zhongda Yuantong Group Co., Ltd., based on Zhejiang market, has established 4S stores beyond Zhejiang since 2011, in Guiyang, Chengdu and Xi’an for instance; while ZhengTong Group, based on Hubei, Hunan and Inner Mongolia markets, has extended its distribution network to Qingdao of Shandong, Nanchang of Jiangxi, and Shenzhen of Guangdong, etc. in 2011.

Among all automotive distribution businesses in China, new car sales accounts for an overwhelming proportion, while used car and after-sales service have an enormous space for development.
For example, Pangda Group, China’s largest automotive distributor, in 2008-2010 the new car sales held over 93% of the total revenue. Although the after-sales service business of Pangda Group accounted for less than 7%, its gross margin was much higher than new car sales business, and the operating revenue also experienced rapid growth at the rate of up to 42.7% and 39.9% in 2009 and 2010 respectively.

As the used car and after-sales service businesses are closely related with the new car market, we believe that after China’s new car sales market reached peak growth in 2009, the auto repair and maintenance market will accelerate its growth in 2012-2013, while the supply and demand of used cars will be greatly increased in 2014-2015.
