According to companies such as Qixiang Tengda and YUSSENGROUP, due to supply contraction combined with stable demand, the price of methyl ethyl ketone has soared from 6,400 yuan/ton in June to the current 8,400 yuan/ton, an increase of over 30%. It is reported that recently, industry-related companies have been intensively overhauling and shutting down, leading to a significant contraction in global methyl ethyl ketone supply. Industry insiders have estimated that currently over 30% of domestic production capacity is offline; on the demand side, domestic market demand remains stable, while overseas markets have seen some growth. The heads of Qixiang Tengda and YUSSENGROUP have stated that their companies' methyl ethyl ketone products are currently "fully produced and fully sold." In terms of listed company capacity, Qixiang Tengda has a methyl ethyl ketone capacity of 260,000 tons, while YUSSENGROUP has 100,000 tons
