30% of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises in the Sodium Sulfate Industry
will be Eliminated by 2025!
A New Environmental Protection Policy is Implemented
According to Sodium Sulfate Industry Consulting, 30% of small and medium-sized enterprises in the sodium sulfate industry will be eliminated by 2025. A new environmental protection policy is implemented.
Latest policies in February 2025: China’s “dual carbon” goals have increased,
and the industry landscape is undergoing a dramatic change.
Policy: A New environmental protection policy fully implemented.
Starting from February 1, 2025: China's sodium sulfate industry will be officially included in the "dual carbon" assessment system, and companies that exceed carbon emission standards will be restricted or shut down (announcement by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment in January 2025).
Industry impact: It is estimated that 30% of small and medium-sized enterprises will exit the market due to their inability to afford the cost of environmental protection upgrades (China Chemical Industry Association survey in February 2025).
Data: Leading companies seize market share
Increased concentration: In February 2025, the market share of the top five alum companies increased to 65% (an increase of 15% from 2024), and industry integration accelerated (Roskill data).
Capital Action: China National Salt Industry Corporation (600328.SH) announced the acquisition of two regional alum companies to further consolidate its leading position (announcement on February 10, 2025).
Technology: Green production becomes core competitiveness
Zero-carbon factory: A Shandong company has built the world's first "zero-carbon sodium sulphate factory", reducing production costs by 12% (put into production on February 15, 2025).
Technological innovation: A breakthrough has been made in the new membrane-based sodium sulfate production technology, reducing energy consumption by 30% (China Chemical Society report in February 2025).
Survival strategy: How can small and medium-sized enterprises break through?
Working together: Unite enterprises in the region to jointly build environmental protection facilities and share the upgrade costs.
Technical cooperation: Cooperate with scientific research institutions to develop green production processes and apply for government subsidies
Transformation to high-end: Focus on high-value-added products such as high-purity medical alum and avoid price wars.
