Sample Description:
The capacity utilization sample covers 12 domestic DBP producers and their respective plants, achieving a 100% sample coverage rate.

Definition:
Capacity utilization refers to the degree to which a company’s production capacity is utilized. It is generally calculated as the ratio of actual product output or raw material processing volume to effective capacity. The weekly DBP capacity utilization data reported by Chempricehub represents the average capacity utilization of the sampled enterprises over a seven-day period, derived from the ratio of actual DBP output to designed output.

Statistical Methodology:

• Reporting Period: The statistical cycle for DBP enterprise capacity utilization runs from Friday of the previous week to Thursday of the current week.
• Publication Time: Data is released between 15:00 and 17:30 on Thursdays (working days).
• Effective Capacity Adjustment: At the end of each year, Chempricehub excludes capacity that has been shut down for more than two consecutive calendar years or capacity for which the enterprise has announced its withdrawal from DBP production. This excluded capacity is not included in the base calculation for capacity utilization.
