Chinese fluorochemical producer making refrigerants (HFCs), fluoropolymers (like PTFE) and other fluorine-based specialty chemicals.
Chinese fluorochemical producer making refrigerants (HFCs), fluoropolymers (like PTFE) and other fluorine-based specialty chemicals.
Sells refrigerant gases and fluoropolymers; refrigerants are made under national quotas that limit how much each producer can supply and so help set price, while polymers are priced in the open market. It is based in Quzhou, Zhejiang, and is controlled by a state-owned parent.
In one line: China's Chemours, focused on refrigerants and fluoropolymers.
Moat: narrow (regulatory licence, scale). Benefits from China's refrigerant production quota system, which caps industry supply and supports pricing.
