From February 22 to 24, 2023, Kuncai Technology showcased its products at the 27th China International Coatings Show (CHINACOAT), held at the Guangzhou Canton Fair Complex.

 

At this year’s coatings exhibition, Kunchai Technology and Zhengtai New Materials showcased the world’s first titanium dioxide product manufactured using a hydrochloric acid extraction process, drawing more than 2,000 visitors to their booths to observe the products and application demonstrations and gain an in-depth understanding of this cutting-edge technology.

 

The exhibition sparked a wave of enthusiasm for titanium dioxide, with numerous media outlets vying to interview and report on the event, highlighting the epoch‑making significance of Kunchai’s titanium dioxide in the industry. Kunchai Technology’s world‑first extraction‑based production process has broken through the technological blockade and monopoly imposed by foreign chlorination‑based titanium dioxide methods, upending the industry’s more than 80‑year‑old production paradigm and steering the global titanium dioxide sector toward high‑quality, sustainable development—marking a truly revolutionary innovation.

 

In addition to titanium dioxide products, the company’s two flagship lines—pearlescent pigments and iron oxides—were also showcased at the booth, providing an opportunity for sharing and collaboration with industry peers.

 

During the exhibition, Dr. Cao Zhicheng of Kunchai delivered a specialized technical lecture, thoroughly explaining the groundbreaking significance of Kunchai’s world‑first hydrochloric acid extraction process in overcoming longstanding technological barriers and driving a comprehensive transformation toward environmental sustainability and superior product quality. The lecture drew a packed house, with industry professionals eagerly discussing the future prospects of the titanium dioxide sector and expressing strong confidence in Kunchai’s titanium dioxide products. Dr. Cao emphasized that, going forward, high‑purity titanium white produced via the hydrochloric acid extraction method will further dismantle overseas monopolies on titanium dioxide, becoming the industry standard and steering the sector toward healthy, orderly growth.

 

As the industry’s most representative enterprise, Kuncai will continue to pursue its corporate mission of “driving innovation, leading industry development, and advancing green, sustainable growth.” By closely monitoring market demands and elevating its technological capabilities, Kuncai aims to ensure that Chinese‑made coatings remain a global leader in the coatings sector.
