Recently, the silicone industry has ushered in a new round of price hikes. Due to the continuous rise in the price of raw material silicone, multiple silicone rubber manufacturers have issued price increase notices. Silicon Treasure Technology, Guangdong Changlu New Materials Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Daqin Organic Silicon Co., Ltd. and other companies have announced that they will raise prices for some or all of their products by 3% to 10% from March 2025.

Industry analysts point out that this price surge is mainly due to the increase in the cost of silicone raw materials. Due to the tense supply-demand relationship, the price of silicone raw materials continues to rise, resulting in a significant increase in production costs for manufacturers. In order to ensure product quality and service level, enterprises have to take price increase measures.
It is reported that organosilicon, as an important polymer material, is widely used in fields such as construction, electronic appliances, power and new energy, medical care, and personal care. With the continuous growth of downstream demand, the market demand for organic silicon products is also showing a trend of sustained growth. However, due to the tight supply of raw materials, limited production capacity, and the constraints of carbon neutrality targets on industrial supply, the prices of organic silicon products are expected to remain high for the long term.
Faced with the wave of price increases, industry insiders suggest that companies should increase their R&D investment, improve product performance and quality, in order to meet market demand. At the same time, the government should strengthen supervision of the raw material market, ensure the stability of the supply chain, and provide strong support for the healthy development of the organic silicon industry.
