Recently, the domestic DMC market prices have been fluctuating continuously, with an average market price of 12900 yuan/ton, an increase of 150 yuan/ton from the previous day. This trend has already begun to emerge during the early trading period, with most individual manufacturers adopting a lock up strategy, indicating that the market is about to usher in a wave of price increases. The main manufacturers in Shandong took the lead in action, raising the transaction price by 100 yuan/ton.

In the afternoon, the market quotation mechanism was restarted, and prices generally rose to 13500 yuan/ton. The prices of 107 rubber and raw rubber also increased accordingly. Faced with this wave of price increases, downstream market participants generally adopt a wait-and-see attitude, and transactions in the high price range are sluggish. However, this also stimulated the enthusiasm of downstream enterprises to inquire about prices, and the market gradually became active.
On the raw material side, the main raw material silicon metal market is relatively stable and has not had a significant impact on the market. On the supply side, individual factories have a firm stance on raising prices, providing strong support for market prices. On the demand side, with the increasing activity of downstream enterprises in inquiry, both supply and demand sides have entered a game state, and the market atmosphere is gradually optimistic.
At the same time, good news came from Xiaolan Town in Zhongshan, Guangdong. After the 2025 High Quality Development Conference, Xiaolan Town held a major project groundbreaking ceremony. The LanSheng high-end silicone new material research and production base project, as one of the star projects, has officially started construction. The total planned investment for this project is 250 million yuan, covering an area of 30 acres. It will introduce internationally advanced research and development, production, and testing equipment to create an efficient research and development center and production base.
Liu Shihe, Chairman of Lansheng Technology, stated that the Lansheng project is one of the important layouts of the company in Zhongshan. It took a very short time from project negotiation to construction, thanks to the pragmatic style and good business environment of the local government and party committee. The project is expected to reach its peak by the end of the year and undergo trial production in the second half of 2026. After reaching its production capacity, the annual output value can reach 400 million yuan, and the annual tax revenue will exceed 20 million yuan. This will strongly promote the research and application of high-end silicone new materials by enterprises, help multiple industries achieve innovation and upgrading, and open a new chapter in the development of silicone new materials.
