Examine the Production, Market and Benchmarking of Glucosamine in China

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM–(EMWNews – Aug. 19, 2008) – Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report related to the China industry is available in its catalogue.

Production, Market and Benchmarking of Glucosamine in China

http://www.reportlinker.com/p091167/Production-Market-and-Benchmarking-of-Glucosamine-in-China.html

As a major glucosamine supplier in the world, China exports about 80% of its glucosamine output to overeseas market, with the major destinations being the US, Europe, South Korea, Japan and other countries and regions. In recent years, China’s glucosamine output and export have been growing very fast both with the annual growth rate of about 10%, and the capacity grows even faster than the output. The production of glucosamine in China is gradually concentrating to big players and the coastal areas. And in recent two years, the number of manufacturers has been decreasing, while the average capactiy of each producer in China has a considerable increase, 90% more in 2008 than that in 2005.

The glucosamine industry in China is highly subject to the supply of raw materials. In this report, the raw materials supply situation is investigated. In China, glucosamine is maily produced from shell of shrimp & lobster, and chitosan is mainly produced from the imported raw materials, snow crab shell. Research on Chitosan is included in this report.

The basic data related to import/export, output, capacity, consumption, demand, etc.are presented in this report and the active manufacturer profiles are also included. The data are breakdown by GAH, GAS and NAG.

A benchmarking study of Glucosamnine in China is also included in this report. Cost analysis on different species of GAS, GAH and NAG are presented. This report inlcudes the theoreatical analysis and the case study on the manufacturer Zhejiang Golden-shell, the leading manufacturer of Glucosamine in China.
