Double Squeeze: Why TiO₂ Prices Are Surging (And It’s Not Just About Costs)

The titanium dioxide market is under a double-barreled squeeze. Prices in China have climbed sharply due to intense cost pressures from titanium ore, sulphuric acid, and energy. Now, a major policy shift in one of the world’s largest markets has supercharged demand. India has removed anti-dumping duties on Chinese TiO₂. The result? A sudden and significant surge in export demand from China to India is colliding with already-tight, cost-inflated production.
This isn't just market news—it's a critical supply chain alert: If you rely on TiO₂ for paints, plastics, coatings, or any application, price volatility and availability are now your top operational risks. Relying on spot market purchases or unsecured channels is a gamble you can't afford.
Given these market dynamics, it's crucial to take proactive steps to secure your supply chain. At Classic International Trading, we help our clients navigate this volatility with confidence. Instead of just reacting to the market, let's build a proactive supply strategy.
