Film capacitors are capacitors constructed by overlapping metal foil as electrodes with plastic films such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, or polycarbonate, and winding them into cylinders from both ends. In recent years, the industry has gained rapid development due to the increasingly wide range of applications of the industry's products.

China's film capacitor industry investment and development strategy of choice

According to the “2015-2020 China Film Capacitor Industry Market Outlook and Investment Planning Analysis Report” data show that, according to statistics, as of 2007 China has been the world's large BOPP capacitor film manufacturing country, accounting for about 50% of global production, annual demand of about 44,000 tons. In recent years, the domestic production of capacitor film continues to grow, “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period of domestic capacitors with polypropylene electronic film compound growth rate of more than 15%. 2013, China's film capacitor industry market size reached 6.158 billion yuan, an increase of 14.6% year-on-year.

And as the downstream market demand continues to be strong, will strongly stimulate the development of film capacitor industry. It is expected that in 2020, China's film capacitor industry will exceed 13 billion yuan. Good prospects for market development, attracting many companies to enter, but enter the industry enterprises must make appropriate strategic layout.

1, enter the industry time layout

At present, China's film capacitor market size is small overall, but in recent years the industry has developed rapidly. In particular, the downstream demand market is growing faster. Film capacitors are mainly used in the field of automotive applications, for example, in recent years, China's annual production and sales of automobiles are more than 20 million, as of September 2014, China's automobile ownership has been close to 150 million. The automotive industry has a strong demand for film capacitors, for example, the Toyota Prius second-generation products will replace the original aluminum electrolytic capacitors with film capacitors.

In order to protect the environment, the government is currently focusing on the development of new energy vehicles, film capacitors are very suitable for use in the electrical environment of new energy vehicles due to their voltage and shock resistance characteristics. On the other hand, in the past years of development, the film capacitor system and weight reduced by 3-4 times, while improving the metallization of the split technology, which greatly helped the development of film capacitors. Thus, it is currently a good time for enterprises to enter the film capacitor industry.

2, into the industry location layout

At present, China's film capacitor market is mainly concentrated in East China, followed by South China, Northeast China. 2013, East China film capacitor market size accounted for 46%; South China accounted for 17%; Northeast China accounted for 14%. Several well-known listed companies in the industry are concentrated in East China, such as Anhui Tongfeng Electronics, Xiamen Farah Electronics, Nantong Jianghai Capacitor, Zhejiang Nanyang Science and Technology and so on.

East China has a complete film capacitor industry chain, but also the main demand market for film capacitors. The future of the region will be the main focus of China's film capacitor enterprises to focus on the development of the market. South China, Northeast and Central China and other regions, the current market growth potential is huge, and the demand for products is also relatively strong, enterprises to try to layout in these regions, in order to occupy a leading position in the regional market.

3, into the industry vision layout

Currently China's film capacitor industry, although the production of the world's third largest Xiamen Rafah Electronics, but compared with developed countries, China's film capacitor enterprises overall competitiveness is still weak. At present, the global film capacitor market share in the world, Japan's Nichicon, Germany's Wima, Italy's ICEL, the U.S. CDE, etc., is the top film capacitor manufacturers, of which, WIMA's products are mainly used for high-quality audio, Nichion is mainly used for electronic products, and CDE is a professional inverter film capacitor manufacturers.

Others, such as Japan's NISSI, the Netherlands' Philips, and Taiwan's Keli, Renesas, Hualong, etc., are also world-renowned film capacitor manufacturers. In terms of production, Japan's Panasonic Electric and Germany's EPCOS, the U.S. Kemet is the world's leading film capacitor manufacturers. Therefore, China's film capacitors to be bigger and stronger, enterprises must have a clear vision, and strive to do to become the industry's leading enterprises, which can drive the overall competitiveness of China's film capacitor industry.
