Cost expectations provide slight support; titanium dioxide struggles to see a rapid recovery [SMM Titanium Spot News]

[SMM titanium spot bulletin: cost expectations provide weak support; titanium dioxide struggles to recover quickly] Titanium dioxide prices are currently seeing limited movement. The expiry of phosphate fertiliser controls is expected to provide cost support from sulphuric acid, but titanium concentrates remain weak. End-use demand from real estate and coatings is sluggish, and the September-October peak season effect is fading. The market lacks a basis for recovery and is expected to consolidate in the doldrums in the short term. Attention should be paid to the release of actual downstream orders.

China's TiO2 Production Rises Slightly in August, Prices Decline Amid Market Weakness

【SMM Titanium Flash】In August 2026, domestic titanium dioxide (TiO2) production in China saw a slight month-on-month (MoM) increase of 0.3%. However, manufacturers simultaneously accumulated inventories, resulting in a MoM growth of 0.34%. Regarding prices, TiO2 prices generally declined weakly in August. As of August 31, the average price of rutile-type TiO2 settled at 13,650 yuan/ton (down 6.5% month-on-month), the average price of anatase-type TiO2 was 12,500 yuan/ton (down 7.4% month-on-month), and the average price of chlorination-process TiO2 was 16,150 yuan/ton (down 0.62% month-on-month). The TiO2 market remained generally weak in August, with the price center of gravity continuing to shift downward. The monthly production reached 339,700 tons, a MoM increase of 0.3%, primarily due to the resumption of supply from enterprises that had previously suspended or reduced production, exerting incremental pressure on the market. Simultaneously, some enterprises chose to suspend production for maintenance to cope with uncertainties, resulting in a differentiated supply side. Leading enterprises and those with high-quality downstream customer resources maintained a relatively good balance between production and sales. However, many enterprises faced significant production and sales pressures. Considering market share capture, capital recovery, and fixed cost dilution, they did not actively limit production and continued to maintain operations
