THAILAND - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

With a well-developed infrastructure, a free-enterprise economy, generally pro-investment policies, and strong export industries, Thailand enjoyed solid growth from 2000 to 2007 - averaging more than 4% per year - as it recovered from the Asian financial crisis of 1997-98. Thai exports - mostly machinery and electronic components, agricultural commodities, and jewelry - continue to drive the economy, accounting for more than half of GDP. The global financial crisis of 2008-09 severely cut Thailand's exports, with most sectors experiencing double-digit drops. In 2009, the economy contracted 2.3%. In 2010, Thailand's economy expanded 7.8%, its fastest pace since 1995, as exports rebounded from their depressed 2009 level. Steady economic growth at just below 4% during the first three quarters of 2011 was interrupted by historic flooding in October and November in the industrial areas north of Bangkok, crippling the manufacturing sector and leading to a revised growth rate of only 0.1% for the year. The industrial sector is poised to recover from the second quarter of 2012 onward, however, and the government anticipates the economy will probably grow between 5.5 and 6.5% for 2012, while private sector forecasts range between 3.8% and 5.7%.

BUSINESS  OPERATIONS

 

The  subject  is  one  of  the  largest  manufacturers  of carbon  black  in  Asia.  Its  manufacturing  plant  currently  is  able  to  produce  up  to  275,000  metric  tons  per  year  of  furnace  grade  carbon  black,  making  the  plant  one  of  the  largest  producers  of  carbon  black  in  the  world  from  a  single  location  -  Thailand.  And  from  this  location,  the  plant  supplies  carbon  black  to  all  six  continents.  There  are  three  kinds  of  carbon  black:    channel  black,  furnace  black  and  thermal  black.  It  has  also  divided  into  2  grades,  comprising  hard  carbon  black  and  soft  carbon  black.

 

The  Application  of  Carbon  Black

 

Carbon  black  is  employed  for  many  different  applications.  It  is  an  essential  element  in  paint,  printing  ink,  batteries,  electric  conductors  and  a  broad  range  of  rubber  products.   Carbon  black  can  be  found  in  most  items  in  daily  life.   In  addition,  carbon  black  acts  as  a  reinforcing  agent  in  the  production  of  tyres,  imparting  abrasion,  tear  resistance  and  important  we-grip  properties.  Carbon  black  consists  of  extremely  fine  particles,  which  are  produced  by  the  incomplete  thermal  decomposition  of  aromatic  oils  under  carefully  controlled  conditions.  Different  grades  of  carbon  blacks  differ  in  their  colloidal  properties  and  tend  to  impart  varying  degrees  of  reinforcement  to  vulcanisates.

COMMENT

 

Thai  Carbon  Black  is  one  of the  largest producers  of  Carbon  Black  in  the world.   Its product  is  well  accepted  and  established  in  the  international  market.   Presently,  company exports  approximately  49% of  its  production  and  able  to  meet  all  customer  requirements  by  developing  new  grades  as  per  customer  specifications.

 

During   the  year  2011 which  has  witnessed   the  full   blown  impact  of  Tsunami in  Japan followed  by  the  worst ever  flood  in  the  country,   production  volume   reduced  by  0.2% and  Sales  volume  decreased  by  4.0%.   

 

However,  the  company  is fully  dependent  on  Auto   industry  and  since  auto  industry  is recovering  in  the  first  quarter of  2012,  TCB will  expect  to  operate  100%  efficiency  and  with  the  addition  of  new line  6  in  2010,  it  will  further  increase  sale  in  South  East  Asia  region  to  maximize  efficiency.
