[SMM Titanium Express] According to SMM data, China's titanium dioxide output in August 2025 decreased by 2.10% month-on-month. This month, the market continued the production reduction strategy. After mid-August, nearly 30 titanium dioxide manufacturers released price adjustment letters, with domestic prices up 500 yuan/ton on average and US dollar prices up 50 USD/ton on average. Currently, production reduction effects emerge, inventories are cleared, downstream demand rebounds, stopping the market decline. Looking to September, prices are expected to rise steadily with demand recovery; sulfuric acid-based prices have risen by about 200 yuan/ton, while chloride-based prices remain low due to inventory pressure.
