Industry Insight- Japan: a diminishing global influence for titanium and zircon In the 1970s and 1980s Japanese manufacturing led the world in producing low-cost value-added products, and demand for titanium and zircon feedstocks within Japan grew on the back of this development. This situation has now changed dramatically, and while its near neighbours are all experiencing rapid economic growth, Japan's economy has essentially been stagnant since 1990.
Meeting Report- Intertech TiO2 2005 The biannual Intertech TiO2 conference was held from 2-4 March 2005 in Cannes, France. The conference was attended by more than 180 international delegates. The conference was focused on two main sectors of the industry: TiO2 pigment and TiO2 feedstocks. A total of 17 separate presentations were given at the conference, and in this report we summarise the main points from the more general interest presentations.
Trade Data- North American TiO2 pigment production and trade TZMI examines production and trade for US, Canada and Mexico.
Pricing Pages- Regular pricing information and pricing developments for feedstocks, and TZMI’s global feedstock price index.
Quarterly Update- This month, Mineral Sands Report presents an update of developments in the supply-demand for zircon.
