1. Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Market Analysis

The titanium dioxide market remained stable this week. Current Chinese rutile TiO₂ ex-factory prices are around $1,806–$1,904 per ton (including tax), while anatase TiO₂ prices are around $1,653–$1,696 per ton.
Some top manufacturers executed new price levels, but overall new orders slowed compared with the previous week. Large producers saw a slight reduction in inventory, while the market remained cautious.
Although raw material costs stayed high, weak end-user demand limited market activity, resulting in stable prices overall.

Raw material costs such as ilmenite remained firm, maintaining strong production cost pressure on TiO₂ producers.
Sulfuric acid prices stayed mostly stable with minor adjustments: Yunnan at $109–$112 per ton, Guangxi at $106–$112 per ton, and Shandong at $82–$87 per ton. Strong fertilizer demand kept sulfuric acid consumption high, indirectly supporting TiO₂ production costs.
Market sentiment remained cautious; many companies are waiting for guidance from leading manufacturers, including LB Group, before adjusting prices.

TiO₂ prices are expected to remain stable in the short term under persistent cost pressure and slow demand recovery.
Large producers may continue to reduce inventories slightly, keeping supply relatively balanced.
Future price movement will largely depend on raw material cost trends and official announcements from major producers.
