TDI smuggled goods in South China increased significantly

March 1, 2006

with the increase of TDI anti-dumping review tax rate last year, many TDI related people began to worry about TDI's parallel goods: they were worried that TDI smuggled goods in South China increased significantly. According to the current situation, The smuggling situation of TDI really confirms people's worries at the beginning

recently interviewed several TDI traders. According to what we have learned, recently, after the Spring Festival, TDI parallel shipments on the domestic market have increased significantly, mainly in Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions. Most of the parallel shipments come from companies such as Mitsui and BASF, and the quantity is estimated to be 1000 tons or more. At present, the average quotation of domestic TDI is about 27000 yuan/ton, while the price of parallel goods is generally about 1000~2500 yuan/ton lower than the market price. Some traders told us that they had calculated an account for TDI parallel goods. For a while ago, the profit of smuggled goods reached 5000~6000 yuan/ton. How can such high profits prevent smugglers from taking risks and making a go of it

of course, the main reason for the significant increase in parallel shipments is the high domestic TDI price. In Guangdong, except for some processing enterprises with supplied materials, almost all downstream manufacturers are using parallel products with bright surface and less floating fiber, and one third of users in East China also use parallel products. Are there so many users of parallel products? According to our analysis, first of all, smuggled goods do not need to pay tariffs, so they have an absolute advantage in price. Secondly, most of the smuggled goods are goods from Mitsui, BASF and other companies. There is almost no difference in quality except that there is no label on the package. These two points alone are attractive enough for downstream users who have no profits at present. Of course, manufacturers that can use parallel goods must also have their own channels. Smugglers also pay attention to long-term interests. They can't pass inferior goods off as good, and they will become regular customers once they come and go. Therefore, since there is a need for more innovation and their interests are so huge, smuggling problems will continue despite repeated prohibitions

the flooding of parallel shipments will certainly have a huge impact on the TDI market. The reason for the current domestic TDI price reduction is that there are more parallel shipments. Some traders said that it was unlikely that domestic TDI prices would continue to fall. This is mainly because March will enter the traditional peak season for sponge manufacturers, but domestic traders have some goods on hand, and no one is willing to take them out. It is estimated that the supply of TDI in the market will be tight by mid March, when the price will continue to rise

in addition, people also called on the customs in South China to strengthen the fight against smuggling and do more practical things to avoid the TDI smuggling problem having a huge impact on the domestic market
