European Silicone Capacity Cuts Expand Supply Shortage

Keywords: EU silicone capacity, REACH compliant silicone, export trade, HONG YE JIE silicone Summary: European silicone factories face shutdown and capacity reduction due to high energy costs, forming a large supply gap. HONG YE JIE silicone increases REACH-certified product exports to the European market. Detailed Content: High energy costs continue to trouble the European silicone industry. A major local production plant plans to shut down in 2027, reducing regional monomer output by about 150,000 tons every year. Local automotive, electronics and daily chemical industries are facing insufficient supply of REACH-compliant silicone products. Relying on complete certification documents and stable product quality, HONG YE JIE silicone actively expands export business in Europe. The brand’s REACH-registered thermal conductive silicone and food-grade LSR are well received by local enterprises, effectively making up for the regional supply shortage.
