矽比科宣布大规模扩展高纯石英砂业务如何看?

2023-04-22

据矽比科官网,矽比科宣布大规模扩展其Spruce Pine(美国)高纯度石英砂业务,矽比科将在2023-2025 年间投资约2亿美元用于Spruce Pine 的资产完整性、能源效率和进一步产能扩张,以使其装机容量在 2022 年基础上翻一番。当前矽比科年产出规模1.3万吨左右, 本次官网宣布其installed capacity在2022年基础上翻一番,预计整体供应规模新增1.3万吨左右。这和去年市场所已经预期到的“尤尼明预计扩产1.5万吨“的信息有高度的一致性,我们判断应该是此前公司已有意决定扩产,但考虑到其漫长的决策周期,目前的新闻只是在此前的扩产信息有了更近一步的进展,表明其已经完成了投资决策,后续将逐步开展实施。目前龙头企业石英坩埚用内层砂价格为27-29.9万元/吨、中层砂价格为17万左右、外层砂价格10-12万元/吨。4月末预计将持续涨价。核心观点:光伏行业高速发展对高纯石英砂需求显著提升,扩产是是早晚的事,不可能不扩。本次扩产决策去年已有预期,这次我们判断是之前决策的正常推进,高纯石英砂扩产周期长,2023-2025年投资三年才会有1.3万吨左右的增量,对于石英砂的供给和需求相比来讲,不算很大的增量。预计2024H2后才会有新产出的石英砂逐步开始供应,整体对2023-2024年的供应紧张格局影响较小,石英砂的涨价也将持续。低品质石英砂+低品质坩埚的应用将导致B级硅片产出增加,价格和盈利将有所分化。矽比科扩产原文翻译Sibelco announces a major expansion of itsSpruce Pine (USA) high purity quartz operations矽比科宣布大规模扩展其云杉松(美国)高纯度石英业务Leading industrial minerals provider Sibelcoannounces an estimated $200 million investment to double high purity quartz(HPQ) installed capacity at its Spruce Pine facility in North Carolina, USA.领先的工业矿物供应商矽比科宣布投资约2亿美元,将其位于美国北卡罗来纳州云杉松工厂的高纯度石英(HPQ)装机容量翻一番。Demand for Sibelco HPQ – sold under the brand name IOTA® – has increased substantially in recentyears, driven by sustained growth in the global semi-conductor and solarphotovoltaic markets. Consistent with this market growth, Sibelco has increasedproduction of HPQ by over 30% from 2019 to 2022 by incrementally expanding itsinstalled capacity through process efficiencies. To meet anticipated furthermarket growth, Sibelco will invest an estimated $200 million in assetintegrity, energy efficiency and further capacity expansion in Spruce Pinebetween 2023 and 2025 to double its installed capacity from the 2022 base. 近年来,由于全球半导体和太阳能光伏市场的持续增长,对矽比科HPQ(以IOTA®品牌销售)的需求大幅增加。随着市场的增长,矽比科通过提高工艺效率逐步扩大产能,从2019年到2022年,HPQ的产量增加了30%以上。为了满足预期的进一步市场增长,矽比科将在2023年至2025年期间投资约2亿美元用于云杉松的资产完整性、能源效率和进一步产能扩张,使其装机容量在2022年的基础上翻一番。With this major expansion of installedcapacity, underpinned by a mine life potential of more than 100 years, Sibelcoaims to provide its customers with an unrivalled value proposition in terms ofproduct quality and availability as well as short- and long-term security ofsupply.凭借这一装机容量的重大扩张,以及超过100年的矿山寿命潜力,矽比科的目标是在产品质量和可用性以及短期和长期供应安全方面为客户提供无与伦比的价值。Expansion of installed capacity at SprucePine will lead to the creation of valuable new jobs in the area. Sibelco hasbeen operating in the region since the 1970s.云杉松的装机容量扩大将为该地区创造宝贵的新就业机会。矽比科自20世纪70年代以来一直在该地区开展业务。“Our investment will ensure that Spruce Pineremains the world’s leading source of HPQ. We are in an excellent position torespond to market demand and ramp up production quickly and sustainably thanksto our expertise, existing infrastructure, and agile business model, all backedby Sibelco’s financial strength and ambition. We clearly understand that ourIOTA® HPQ products play a critical role in the global semi-conductor and solarphotovoltaic industries and with this major expansion we aim to provide anunrivalled value proposition to our customers in terms of product quality andavailability as well as short- and long-term security of supply.”“我们的投资将确保云杉松树仍然是世界领先的HPQ来源。由于我们的专业知识、现有的基础设施和灵活的商业模式,我们处于一个非常有利的位置,可以响应市场需求,快速、可持续地提高产量,所有这些都得到了矽比科的财务实力和雄心壮志的支持。我们清楚地认识到,我们的IOTA®HPQ产品在全球半导体和太阳能光伏产业中发挥着至关重要的作用,通过这一重大扩张,我们的目标是在产品质量和可用性以及短期和长期供应安全方面为客户提供无与伦比的价值主张。”About Sibelco关于矽比科Sibelco is a global leader in materialsolutions.

Mined from two uniquely pure orebodies with a combined mine life potentialof over 100 years, Sibelco IOTA®HPQ products are manufactured in twoexpandable mineral processing plants and two advanced chemical processingplants. The IOTA®HPQ products are used to make fused quartz, a material withunparalleled optical, mechanical, and thermal properties that make itindispensable in the manufacture of high purity products such as semi-conductorand photovoltaic crucibles and base materials, quartz lightening and opticalfibres.矽比科的IOTA®HPQ产品是在位于美国北卡罗来纳州阿巴拉契亚山脉的云杉松生产的。Sibelco IOTA®HPQ产品从两个独特的纯矿体中开采,矿山寿命潜力超过100年,在两个可扩展的矿物加工厂和两个先进的化学加工厂生产。IOTA®HPQ产品用于制造熔融石英,这是一种具有无与伦比的光学,机械和热性能的材料,使其成为制造高纯度产品(如半导体和光伏坩埚和基础材料),石英轻质和光纤中不可或缺的材料。网页链接【机构点评】尤尼明宣布扩产,目标25年产能实现翻倍,低于此前预期,23-25年石英紧缺持续 #石英砂需求高增 根据尤尼明官网,近年来,随着全球半导体和太阳能光伏市场的持续扩张,市场对公司高纯度石英的需求实现大幅增长,公司通过提高工艺效率,实现高纯石英砂产量从2019年到2022年提升30%以上。#2亿美元用于扩产 为满足预期市场的进一步增长,公司将在2023至2025年间投资约2亿美元,用于其Spruce Pine石英工厂的能效提高与产能扩张计划,预计投资完成后,产量将在2022年基础上实现翻倍,目前尤尼明的高纯石英砂进入中国市场约1.5万吨。公司的高纯石英产品由位于美国北卡罗来纳州阿巴拉契亚山脉的 Spruce Pine工厂生产。#23-25年供给仍然短缺 尤尼明扩产整体略不及预期,原先预期尤尼明最快24年下半年能释放产能,现在看估计要到25年,因此23-24年石英砂紧张持续无虞。此外预计25年硅片产出将达超700gw(22年硅片产量350gw),需求翻倍,因此即使尤尼明扩产翻倍,TQC不扩产,整体25年供给仍然短缺。目前国产内层石英砂预计月底将涨到30万/吨,坩埚价格也有望来到每只3万5以上。持续推荐石英紧缺受益标的:#TCL中环、欧晶科技、石英股份。
