Technical and Edible Sodium Chloride Market Research in the CIS

This report is currently available in Russian language only. However, we can provide an English version of the report within 3 weeks after receiving a payment.

This review is devoted to investigation of current market conditions of technical and edible sodium chloride in the CIS / Russia and forecast of its development.

The survey consists of 7 chapters, contains 149 pages including 57 tables, 31 figures and 2 annexes.

In the first chapter of the review data on the condition of the world market of sodium chloride: reserves, production and prices have been summarized.

The second chapter presents data on volumes of reserves and geographic location of deposits of sodium chloride in the CIS and the Russian Federation.

The third chapter is devoted to the review of volumes of extraction and production of sodium chloride in Russia and CIS countries for the period of 2000-2009.

In the fourth chapter, the characteristic of the current position of the largest producers of sodium chloride in the CIS is given.

The fifth part of the review describes foreign trade operations in sodium chloride of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan.

The sixth chapter examines the structure of sodium chloride consumption in Russia, describes basic end-uses and basic enterprise-consumers of sodium chloride.

The seventh chapter gives forecast of development of Russian market of sodium chloride for a period up to 2015.

In the Annexes the addresses and contact data of the largest enterprises, producing table salt in the CIS, as well as map of the location of the largest deposits of sodium chloride in the CIS are given.

This work is a 'desk' study, in the course of which data from multiple sources of information were analyzed, first of all data of state bodies - the Inter-State Statistics Committee of CIS, the Federal Service of State Statistics (FSSS or Rosstat) of Russia, the State Statistics Committee (SSC) of Ukraine, the State Balances of Mineral Reserves, the Federal Customs Service (FCS) of Russia, the State Customs Services of Ukraine and Belarus, the Statistics Agency of Kazakhstan. Also, data of companies, the database of 'InfoMine', media materials and the internet data were used.

All this has enabled the authors to identify a picture of the sodium chloride market in the CIS / Russia and its prospects.

It should be noted that, regarding the production of sodium chloride in the CIS, the experts of 'InfoMine' have accepted the provision that as the products manufactured, in addition to edible sodium chloride, also brines, processed in the future by chemical enterprises, as well as technical and fodder salt are considered. In addition, technical sodium chloride and brines are produced by Russian potash companies in the course of halurgical processing of sylvinite.

All data on volumes of brine production are given in equivalent of solid product.
