CTP plate market is showing signs of fatigue

[ppzhan abstract] Recently, the 2012 national offset printing plate industry work conference was held in Chengdu, Sichuan Province. The heads of plate manufacturing enterprises across the country attended the meeting. The statistics on the annual plate market published by Yuan Jianxiang, the secretary general of the Printing Equipment Branch, made the participants look forward to the same as the primary school students waiting for the final results.

Recently, the 2012 National Offset Printing Plate Industry Working Conference was held in Chengdu, Sichuan Province. The heads of plate manufacturing enterprises across the country attended the meeting. The statistics on the annual plate market published by Yuan Jianxiang, the secretary general of the Printing Equipment Branch, made the participants look forward to the same as the primary school students waiting for the final results.

At the meeting, Yuan Jianxiang reported on the statistics of 92 plate production lines nationwide and released new statistics for the offset printing plate industry in 2011: the total production capacity of national offset printing plates was 371 million square meters, of which CTP plate production was 178 million square meters. Rice, an increase of 8.16% over 2010; and CTP plate sales of 171 million square meters, an increase of 45.89% over 2010. Yuan Jianxiang used "two liters and one drop" to describe the overall situation of CTP plates: rising production and sales, falling prices, and rising exports.

Although the domestic CTP plate usage accounted for the proportion of all offset plate usage, it jumped from around 5% in 2005 to 46% in 2011. However, the past 2012 market shows that the development of CTP has slowed down significantly. Although it may coincide with the bottom of its own development, it may also be caused by the macroeconomic recession. However, the fundamental reason is still the domestic use of PS plates. The proportion of packaging and printing is constantly high, and the simple long-running version is more suitable for the growth of CTP plates due to the cost of the PS plate. Yuan Jianxiang believes that the use of CTP plates will account for two-thirds of the total use of offset plates and will actually enter a relatively sluggish development stage.

At this meeting, the price of CTP plates was concerned. Before 2003, China's CTP plate was completely dependent on imports, and the price of CTP plates exceeded 100 yuan/square meter. In 2004, the annual output of CTP plates produced in China was only 1.8 million square meters, and the price has been lowered to 90 yuan / square meter. In 2005, it was about 70 yuan / square meter, and it was reduced to 60 yuan / square meter before and after 2008. Left and right, it has been equivalent to the cost of the photo filming process "film + PS version". With the increasing number of visitors to the CTP industry chain, the marginal cost of scale continues to decline, coupled with the continuous price cuts of CTP platesetters, international silver prices continue to rise, China's CTP ushered in a blowout frenzy around 2010. Unfortunately, the price of CTP plates at this time has dropped to 40 yuan, and in 2012, CTP plate prices continue to enter the downtrend channel.

The sharp drop in the price of CTP plates is actually a manifestation of a completely competitive market. Due to the continuous decline in printing prices, printing companies have been forced to control the cost to a severe stage of forced help, whether it is from the extensive use of automation equipment to reduce labor costs, or to continue to extend the payment period of consumables, because Brought by market pressure. A simple example illustrates this trend: the "transitional product" CTcP plate that was previously considered to be between the PS version and the CTP version, once again became the new darling of the 2012 plate market as a UV-CTP plate. In fact, this printing resistance and plate making effect are not as good as the "transition products" of CTP plates. It is only favored because the price per square meter is about 5 yuan cheaper than the CTP plate. Many output centers or printing houses may already have a complete CTP plate making system, but because they can't afford the version, they choose a more backward UV-CTP plate. Is this a kind of irony in the market?
