Rare earth prices soared opportunity to weaken the opponent LED lamps rise

With energy-saving light-emitting materials, rare earth fluorescent and LED situation is rainbow night - the latter sales rose, the former sharp contraction. The industry believes that the rare earth luminescent materials market downturn provides an opportunity for the LED grow.

Luminescent materials has gone through the incandescent lamp, energy saving lamp era, and there have been energy-saving lamps and halogen powder, rare earth fluorescent and LED lights (also used rare earth, rare earth fluorescent but only one thousandth). Rare alternative to traditional incandescent lamps in the first generation of energy-saving lamps halogen powder plays an important role. According to the Shanghai Illuminating Engineering Society materials are now rare earth fluorescent lighting in large cities account for 70% market share.

However, this pattern is slowly changing. Reporters recently learned from Ganzhou Rare Earth and other international forums pipeline was informed in 2012, rare earth luminescent materials (more than 90% of rare earth fluorescent) sales of 4,500 tons, 8,000 tons year 2011 sales fell 43.8 percent; 2013 first half, rare earth luminescent materials sales were flat with last year.

And from the Engineering Industry data show that in 2012, the third generation of its competitors in energy-saving lamps LED total sales rose nearly 34%. The most noteworthy is the LED in the civilian market less competitive erupted.

The first half of 2013, LED civilian market sales and sales grew more than 150 percent and were 300%.

As a new generation of energy-saving light, LED light efficiency than the same price of rare earth fluorescent 6-10 times higher, but the LED energy-saving effect is better for large power consumption in public places, installing LED cost-effective.

In addition, rare earth prices have rocketed and rapid decline after the maker of rare earth fluorescent lamps with up with an offer down, however, and the magnitude of price increases fast frequent high, gradually shaken the confidence of customers, resulting in orders plummeted.

Shanghai Lighting Society WU Hong introduction, rare earth fluorescent lamp industry is now operating at only four or five percent, businesses open to open the stop is the norm, very bad day too. "Now is the winter, when the industry hold together."

Rare CFL encounter crises but the rise of the LED nurturing a rare opportunity. Reporters learned that some manufacturers converting from rare earth fluorescent LED, such as sunlight illumination (600,261, stock it) LED the proportion rose to 10 percent from last year's 28%.

"Before 2011, the industry is expected to replace rare earth energy-saving lamps LED light time is 10 years, and now it seems not so long." Shanghai Lighting Society Hong Wu said.
