Lubei Chemical's Xianghai Tech Expands Chlorination TiO2 Capacity to 120,000 Tons Annually

Published: Jun 14, 2026 22:38
[SMM Titanium Flash News] The expansion project of Xianghai Technology, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lubei Chemical, with an annual production capacity of 60,000 tons of chlorination-process titanium dioxide, was successfully commissioned in one go on May 22, 2026, and has entered the trial production phase. This is a core move for the company to upgrade its product structure to high-end. After the project reaches full production, the company's total chlorination-process production capacity will reach 120,000 tons per year. The key points to watch are whether the trial production goes smoothly, the speed of capacity ramping up, and whether high-end products can bring the expected improvement in profitability.
