Chempricehub Important Reminder: Sulfur Price Increase Drives Up Phosphoric Acid Costs
Published on 2026-03-28

March 27th News
On March 25th, Yuntianhua stated that since 2025, the international market price of sulfur has continued to rise, imposing significant cost pressures on the entire phosphorus chemical industry, particularly affecting sectors primarily reliant on wet-process phosphoric acid. By strengthening strategic analysis and optimizing procurement strategies, the company has maintained a robust strategic reserve of sulfur, giving it a significant competitive advantage in sulfur costs compared to the market.

Chempricehub Analysis
Sulfur, Bull-Bear Score: 1.5
The sustained rise in international sulfur prices directly benefits spot prices, driven by increased demand or supply constraints that elevate market value. Although Yuntianhua highlights its strategic reserve advantage, the overall trend indicates cost-driven price increases, which are favorable for producers.

Phosphoric Acid, Bull-Bear Score: -0.5
Rising sulfur prices increase the production costs of phosphoric acid, exerting upward pressure on spot prices, particularly impacting the wet-process phosphoric acid industry. While Yuntianhua’s procurement strategy and reserve advantages partially mitigate the cost impact, the overall effect remains slightly bearish for production profitability.
