Country Outlook

Indonesia, being one of the highest South-East Asian economies is highly dependent on imports for most of its industrial products. Being devoid of any soda ash manufacturing plant, Indonesia is ranked 3^rd worldwide for soda ash imports to meet the requirements for rapidly growing local end-user industries.

Positives and Negatives

Setup of Soda Ash the manufacturing plant will meet the End User Industry consumption requirements in Indonesia and other southeast Asian countries. Growing government focus on making Indonesia a base for promoting exports of glass and planned infrastructural investment in the future will augment growth with profitable opportunities in the country. Furthermore, long term partnerships can be established with the players as the growing household possession of dishwashers and washing machines will drive the demand for soap and Detergents industry in the future.

However, contrarily, the Indonesian industry is paying an average gas price of $9.2 per MMBtu to the domestic glass manufacturers, while its regional peers that include Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia enjoy prices below $6 per MMBtu. Manufacturers are facing high production costs and are still waiting for the government to cut prices despite repeated government assurances. This can restrict the production of glass and hence demand soda ash as raw material for the country.

Is it the right time to enter?

Government is encouraging investors for the immediate realization of the construction of soda ash a factory in Indonesia with respect to the funding and investments required for the setup, the Director-General of IKTA (Chemical, Textile, and Multifarious Industries) got proposals from three potential investors for the setup of the plant in the country.

Moreover, with respect to the official data, the low minimum wage rate of the country compared to the other South-Asian countries including China and Thailand, posed an opportunity for the manufacturers to get cheap labor in the country. The favorable factors promote the setup of soda ash manufacturing plant in the country. According to Ken Research Estimates, the new production plant of Soda Ash in Indonesia could break even in the next 3-5 years. With approximately 1 million tons of annual consumption needs, (currently being met by imports), the country poses favorable conditions to set up a new Soda Ash Manufacturing Plant.

 Analysts at Ken Research in their latest the publication "Global and Indonesia Soda Ash Industry Outlook to 2024" observed that Soda Ash Industry in Indonesia will foresee growth due to escalating demand from the end-user industries and promotion of growth in the industry through government initiatives and investments.

Global Soda Ash Production Capacity

~% of Soda Ash produced is traded globally through vessels creating the need for new production plants in top importing countries such as ~, ~, ~, etc. China holds ~% of manufacturing capacity, highest among all, being mostly done through synthetic methods. RoW expected to grow faster with APAC, ~ & ~ being major growth drivers.

Trading of Soda Ash in Indonesia

Soda Ash imports exceeded exports by USD~ Mn in 2018 with Average import Price of USD ~ per ton of Soda Ash. USA & China contributed to ~% of both total import value & the volume of soda ash in Indonesia.

Trading of Raw Materials of Soda Ash

Cost of Trona & prices of Salt has maintained stability since 2015 due to defined ownership rights of mining beds for producers & due to abundant supply of salt.

Trading of Salt:

Indonesia is primarily a salt Importer with the number of imports growing at a CAGR (‘14-’18) of ~% Persistence Preference towards imports due to the major price difference in import (USD ~ in ‘18) and domestic production (USD ~ in ‘18) of salt. Indonesia can produce a maximum of ~ MT of salt/year while consumption is evaluated at ~ MT, most of it for industrial purposes.

Global End-User Segmentation

With more than ~% share in end users, growth anticipated in Soap and Detergents industry from USD ~bn in 2019 to USD ~bn by 2023 with new detergents and dishwashing solutions

Soda Ash is considered to be among one of the top 5 major inorganic chemicals at the global level wherein the major production happens through the Synthetic process. Due to the high concentration of Natural Soda Ash Reserves in the US, the production process has been shifting from Synthetic to Natural. Even though the pattern is shifting, 75% of production is done through synthetic mode worldwide with the high scope of revenue from down-stream industries.

Environmental Challenge

Mining of Soda Ash from Natural resources implied exhaustion and depletion of Trona ores, resulting in low volume and high soda ash prices. Emission of ~60 Mt (Source: Ken Research Analysis) of CO2 gas during the soda ash production process and sulfur oxides during its transportation through vessels have raised alarms for serious Environmental concerns across the world and therefore called for stringent regulations and restricted processes.

Impact of Stringent Regulations

Such emission norms caused a significant decline in supplies from countries majorly Europe and China (with the highest concentration of manufacturing capacity) due to high production costs. Environmental checks to improve industrial waste caused supply-demand difference and resulted in price fluctuations across the globe. Moreover, with the new regulations, manufacturers in the industry are required to either upgrade their existing machinery or replace the old factories with new ones to meet new environmental standards.

Is there a room for Growth?

Reduced production and process up-gradation costs pave way for enlarged opportunities for countries like Turkey, to augment their products in the future so as to meet the worldwide steady soda ash demand. A noteworthy growth rate of 6%-7% has been witnessed in the Synthetic soda ash production process segment due to its rising availability as a raw material to the global glass (largest application sector) manufacturing industry.

Opportunity for South Asian Countries

With infrastructural support to Middle-east and Asian Pacific countries (China, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia) development of domestic and commercial buildings, Household Detergents and Water Treatment industry in such Countries will upsurge their soda ash consumption Indonesia, being the 3rd largest importer of soda ash now has the opportunity to set up their first manufacturing plant in the country to meet this rising demand domestically and from neighbouring nations.
