Industry Insight: A Deep Dive into the 2024 Coating Base Film Capacity Layout in South China
I’m fresh back from the Adhesive and Tape Industry Conference, finally have time to arrange the data.Brimming with new knowledge and industry insights. One piece of information that stood out as a true “treasure map” for professionals was the detailed 2024 China Coating Base Film Capacity Distribution Map.

As a critical base material for packaging, construction, and electronics, the production capacity of coating base film is a key driver of market supply and price fluctuations. To provide a valuable reference for industry peers and those looking to enter the field, I’m sharing and analyzing the core data for the South China region.
I’ve organized the key data of jumbo roll for clarity (Unit: 10,000 tons/year):
Guangdong Province: The Unrivaled Industrial Powerhouse
Guangdong demonstrates unparalleled industrial clustering and completeness.
Key Coating Base Film Producers: Zhongshan Yongda (18.1), Guangdong Youyi (24.0), Shenzhen Heshunbao (10.4), Shenzhen Jinchanghui (4.2).
Key BOPP/BA Raw Material Suppliers: Furon New Materials (Zhaoqing) (11.5), Guangdong Youyi (13.0), Shenzhen Jinchanghui (12.8), CNOOC Huizhou (10.0), Jieyang Yuntong BOPP (6.2), Shantou Xinjiaxing BOPP (8.0), Shantou Guanhua BOPP (5.0).
Regional Insight: A complete industrial chain, with a balanced layout from raw materials to finished products, creates powerful synergies and cost advantages.
Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region: The Strategic Raw Material Hub
Guangxi’s capacity structure is distinct.
Upstream Giant: Guangxi Huayi’s BA (Butyl Acrylate) raw material capacity stands at a massive 40.0, making it a strategically vital supply source for South China and beyond.
Downstream Producer: Guangxi Yourijiu (2.6).
Regional Insight: This “Strong Upstream, Focused Downstream” structure means Guangxi’s massive raw material capacity acts as a strategic stabilizer for the regional market, laying the groundwork for future downstream industry expansion.

Trend Summary:
Guangdong’s Leadership is Solidified: Both in coating base film and BOPP film, Guangdong’s total capacity and number of enterprises far surpass other regions. Its complete industrial ecosystem is its core competitive edge.
Guangxi Emerges as a Resource Nexus: Guangxi Huayi’s 400k ton BA capacity makes it an indispensable “ballast” for raw materials, drawing nationwide attention.
Integration and Specialization Coexist: Companies like Guangdong Youyi and Shenzhen Jinchanghui, which produce both base film and BOPP, enhance their risk resilience. Meanwhile, numerous specialized manufacturers thrive in their niches, creating a healthy industrial ecosystem.
This valuable capacity map is crucial for analyzing market supply and demand, optimizing supply chain strategy, and guiding future investment decisions.
We will be compiling data from other regions of China in the future. Feel free to share your experiences in the comments section.
