China's demand for pulp and paper chemicals has grown at a fast pace in the past decade. In the next five years, both production and demand will continue to grow.

The Chinese market demand for pulp and paper chemicals will increase by 7.5% annually to reach 8,163,400 metric tons in the year 2010. Pulp and paper chemicals output reached 1,632,000 metric tons in 1990 and the figure was about 3,930,000 metric tons in 2000 with the average annual growth rate of 9.2% in the past ten years. China will remain a large exporter of pulp and paper chemicals throughout this century. China will also keep importing certain types of pulp and paper chemicals due to the surging demand and insufficient supply of top grade products by the domestic market. In 1990, China imported 128,900 metric tons of pulp and paper chemicals and related products. Pulp and paper chemical imports will grow by 8.9% per annum to 492,700 metric tons in the year 2005. At the same time, the exports of pulp and paper chemicals were active. In 1990, the exports were 153,200 metric tons, and the figure reached 372,100 metric tons by the end of 2000. In this century, the exports of pulp and paper chemicals will continue to increase and the figure will reach 564,700 metric tons in 2005. The Chinese pulp and paper chemicals industry will continue to remain a hot spot for foreign investment throughout the next century.
