Advantages and disadvantages of the development of ink enterprises in the direction of gigantism

in recent years, ink companies have been merged continuously. After successfully acquiring BASF printing ink business, CVC capital partner company acquired flint ink company in an all-round way

flint ink company is the largest private ink manufacturer in the world. XSYS printing solutions was incorporated by BASF printing systems and Ani printing inks. The merger of the two enterprises will help strengthen the core competitiveness of the two enterprises in their respective fields. At present, the businesses of the two enterprises in North America and Europe can be perfectly combined through the complementarity of products and sales systems. The merger of the two enterprises is a great good thing for users, employees and shareholders

xsys oil under CVC can produce fatigue. Ink company is the third largest ink manufacturer in the world, while flint company is the second largest ink manufacturer in the world. After the combination of the two, an ink production giant with annual sales of 2.1 billion euros will be formed, second only to the Greater Japan/sunchem consortium with annual sales of 3.7 billion euros. The business development of flint in Asia can help the merged business entity obtain new development opportunities in the fastest-growing market in the world. In particular, Flint has invested in China as its first step to occupy the Asian market. This merger is bound to have an impact on China's ink market and pose a threat to domestic ink enterprises. It has become a trend for ink enterprises to develop into giants, which will affect the living space of relatively small Chinese ink enterprises. For Chinese ink enterprises, the acquisition seems to do more harm than good

as the world's fourth largest ink producer, China's ink output accounts for about 6% of the world. At present, China has a comprehensive annual printing ink production capacity of about 250000 tons, second only to the United States, Japan and Germany. The total volume of China's ink market is 5billion yuan per year. However, there is still a certain gap between the overall level of ink production, quality and variety in China and foreign advanced countries. There are deficiencies in printing adaptability (such as transfer printing, water resistance and high-speed printing adaptability), and the consistency of products is not ideal. A good software system can not only operate simply and quickly to meet the needs of high-speed and high-quality printing. Some products still need to be imported. Domestic production of raw materials for ink, and COPV's flight experiment also helps to make the technology more mature. In terms of quality, quantity and variety, it cannot develop synchronously with ink production, and some raw materials still rely on imports. In addition, the development of special anti-counterfeiting inks is relatively slow, which can not meet the needs of the development of packaging printing and anti-counterfeiting printing, and the electronic inks required for digital printing cannot be produced in China

after joining the WTO, foreign ink enterprises have entered the Chinese market one after another, and the number of ink companies with production bases in China is increasing. China's ink industry is facing fierce competition. For example, Flint company of the United States has established an ink factory in Daxing, Beijing, which mainly produces oil ink and will become a mixing center of thermosetting ink; Japan grand Nippon Ink Co., Ltd. (DIC) is wholly-owned to build an organic pigment and printing ink factory in Nantong, Jiangsu Province; Japan sun Ink Co., Ltd. established an ink factory with an annual output of 3000 tons in Suzhou in 2003, becoming the company's fourth overseas production base after the United States, South Korea and Taiwan Province of China; Japan's Sakata ink company also established an ink factory with an annual output of 3600 tons in Shanghai in 2003. Its products are mainly gravure ink. This year, it established a factory in Maoming, mainly producing lithographic ink

the domestic ink industry must seize opportunities, meet challenges, strengthen technological innovation, management innovation and institutional innovation, and make new contributions to the development of China's ink industry. The general goal is to develop in the direction of "high speed, multi-color, fast drying, no pollution, low consumption and standardization"; We should improve the adaptability of ink products to the requirements of printing technology and printing quality, and improve their scientific and technological content. In particular, we should adapt to the needs of packaging and printing products that are high-tech, multi variety, bright colors, and pay attention to the development of aesthetics and artistry, optimize the product structure, and develop more high-quality printing inks; In the future, large, medium and small ink manufacturing enterprises should further deepen the reform, optimize the combination, develop in a reasonable and standardized direction, further enhance the awareness of "standardization and environmental protection", and integrate with the ISO9000 quality experimental machine series products produced by Jinan assay, which are widely applicable to various industries for physical and chemical testing, so as to expand the domestic ink market and enter the international market, Gradually replace old products with environmental friendly and energy-saving ink products; We should strengthen the supporting capacity of pigment resins and additives used in the industry; We should constantly strengthen the technical training of ink talents and improve their professional quality to meet the technical standards of adopting a variety of foreign advanced equipment and products and the technical requirements of highly automated production
