The requirements of building materials are increasingly strict, and the traditional organic thermal insulation building materials will be declining. However, the annual demand for new building materials will reach at least millions of tons, which is several times of the current output in China. The production enterprises will obtain new opportunities for development.

Recently, the Department of raw materials of the Ministry of industry and information technology held a forum in Beijing on the development of the safety and environmental protection type external thermal insulation material industry and the preparation of industry access conditions. The meeting proposed to improve industrial policies and standardize industry access. In the period of rapid industrial development, the entry threshold should be clarified as soon as possible in the aspects of industrial layout, product quality, technology and scale, product unit consumption, energy consumption, environmental protection, safety and social responsibility, etc., and in combination with the implementation of access announcement management, the production enterprises meeting the admittance conditions should be announced to the public.

The state's requirements on safety, environmental protection and energy conservation of building materials will be increasingly strict. Traditional building materials will be declining, and new building materials will get new opportunities for development.

It is one of the effective ways to reduce energy consumption in our country to promote the use of external insulation. At present, the energy loss of housing in China is about 50% for walls, 10% for roofs, 25% for doors and windows, and 15% for basements and floors. Therefore, the thermal insulation of wall and roof is an important part to improve the building energy efficiency. How to choose a kind of safe and environmental protection wall insulation building materials, is the industry needs to pay attention to, and determines the healthy development of building energy conservation and insulation building materials industry in China.

Under the requirements of residential environment safety and environmental protection, China's building energy efficiency rate has increased year by year. However, at present, organic materials are the main body of thermal insulation materials for buildings, especially for external wall insulation materials. Polystyrene market share is 90% and polyurethane is 10%. However, due to the material characteristics and various fire prevention measures and management measures are not in place, fire accidents occur from time to time.

In order to ensure safety, the Ministry of housing and urban rural development and the Fire Department of the Ministry of Public Security jointly promulgated the Interim Provisions on external thermal insulation and exterior wall decoration fire prevention of civil buildings in September 2009. In the Interim Provisions, it is stipulated that the combustion performance of thermal insulation materials used in residential buildings with a height greater than or equal to 100m, public buildings with a height greater than or equal to 50m, and curtain wall buildings with a building height greater than or equal to 24m are specified.

The so-called "a" refers to non combustible materials, but at present, the most popular building external insulation materials in China are organic materials. Even if flame retardant is added, the maximum can only reach B1 level. If we want to strictly implement the most stringent fire protection order in history, it means that China's thermal insulation material industry will face the situation of reshuffle and even elimination.

Therefore, thermal insulation materials, especially external wall thermal insulation materials, have a considerable market capacity, which can bring greater business opportunities to enterprises engaged in external wall thermal insulation materials.

If we analyze the current demand of building thermal insulation Market in China, the annual demand will at least reach millions of tons, which is several times of China's production. The data shows that China's building energy efficiency rate has basically achieved the goal of 50% in 2010. However, except for a few large and medium-sized cities, there is a big gap between the majority of small and medium-sized cities and rural areas, and the market growth space is relatively broad.

Safety and environmental protection external insulation material is the key material for building to achieve disaster prevention and reduction, energy saving and consumption reduction. With the increasing awareness of building safety and fire protection, the demand for this material in the construction industry is growing rapidly. Since 2011, the supply of safety and environmental protection external thermal insulation materials for external walls is in short supply, and the production capacity has been expanded in many places.
