(Before It's News)

Refractory material is one of the indispensible materials in such high-temperature industries as iron and steel, building materials, chemicals, nonferrous metals, etc. Over 70% of refractory materials worldwide are applied in iron and steel smelting, 17% in building material industry and 4% in chemical industry.

Now, China is the largest producer and exporter of refractory materials around the globe. In 2013, China’s refractory material output hit 28.189 million tons, sweeping more than 66% of the world’s total; export volume topped 1.769 million tons, 51.7 times the import volume.

Despite the global leading position, Chinese refractory materials have been confronted with the prominent problem of overcapacity in recent years. Additionally, subject to growth slowdown in downstream sectors, the falling demand and other factors, market competition intensifies. Enterprises in the field received reduced orders and saw sales volume in decline, some companies even in the red.

According to statistics of The Association of China Refractories Industry (ACRI), in 2013, 59 key refractory material companies in China posted a year-on-year rise of 3.19% in refractory material output and a year-on-year increase of 2.83% in sales but a year-on-year drop of 10.36% in profit.

In the future, Chinese refractory material industry will enter a range of lower growth and may even experience some slight decrease. It is projected that during 2014-2016, Chinese refractory material output will register an AAGR of around 3.8%.

Against the sluggish market, companies at home and abroad have made breakthroughs in various ways, in which merging and reorganization becomes an edge tool in improving market concentration.

RHI is the largest refractory material company with 33 plants in the world, 4 of which are located in China, capable of producing 1.7 million tons of refractory materials annually. In 2013, RHI gained 69.6% equity of Orient Refractories Ltd. via two successive acquisitions; in 2014, RHI planned to take over one raw material plant in Erzurum, Turkey of Cihan Group and the mining right.

Vesuvius was once acquired by Cookson Group in 1986 and got separated from it at the end of 2012 and listed in London Stock Exchange. 2013 witnessed Vesuvius achieve revenue of GBP1.41 billion, in which GBP460 million came from refractory materials.

Puyang Refractories Group Co., Ltd. has successively acquired and reorganized Kunming Iron and Steel Refractories, Shanghai Baoming Refractories Co. Ltd., Jiaozuo Bigger Refractories Co., Ltd. and so forth; in 2013, Puyang Refractories gained 100% equity of Zhengzhou Huawei Refractories Co., Ltd. and in 2014 it planned to obtain 100% stake of Maanshan Yushan Metallurgical New Materials Co., Ltd. and 100% stake of Zhengzhou Huite Refractory Material Co., Ltd. via merger and acquisition.
