  • [David McCoy] told the 2012 TZMI Congress in Hong Kong in November that: "[2011] was a really high peak but we are not going to see that again anytime soon." TiO 2 and its associated feedstocks are often described as being GDP-linked because their end markets - paint and plastics - expand as GDP does, meaning they profit in areas with growing GDP.

    China's large number of TiO 2 producers includes few companies with output large enough to rival leading western producers like DuPontEand Tronox.
