ReportsnReports.com adds Global and China Optical Fiber Preform Market Report, 2014-2017 that says optical fiber preform, optical fiber and optical cable respectively account for 70%, 20% and 10% of the total profit of the optical fiber industry chain.
Complete report on optical fiber preform market spread across 97 pages, profiling 13 companies and supported with 128 charts is now available at http://www.reportsnreports.com/reports/404811-global-and-china-optical-fiber-preform-industry-report-2014-2017.html .
Global optical fiber preform market capacity amounted to 13,000 tons in 2014, mainly concentrated in the United States, Japan and China (totaling as much as 85.2% of the world's total), of which China ranked first with a share of 39.8%. Besides a big producer of optical fiber preform, China is also a large consumer, demanding 6,639 tons in 2014, 60.9% of global demand. The figure is expected to increase to 7,144 tons in 2015.
Due to technological limitation, over 70% of China's demand for optical fiber preform market was imported prior to 2010. In recent years, as key domestic companies enhanced their capability for independent research and development, China's optical fiber preform production capacity continued to expand. Thus, the self-sufficiency rate in optical fiber preform rose from 20.0% in 2007 to 64.4% in 2014, and is expected to reach 72.6% in 2015.
In March 2014, the Ministry of Commerce initiated an anti-dumping investigation on optical fiber preform market originating in Japan and the United States. In May 2015, the preliminary verdict showed that China Customs would levy security deposits on imports of optical fiber preform from Japan and the United States based on dumping margin (7.8%-39.0%) decided in preliminary rulings. Affected by this, China's imports of optical fiber preform recorded negative growth (-9.5%) for the first time in 2014 and are expected to keep falling in 2015 (a year-on-year decline of 8.7% during Jan-May).
Global optical fiber preform market is highly concentrated, with top 5 companies (one in China, two in the United States, and two in Japan) together making up 59.4% of market share in 2014, of which Chinese Yangtze Optical Fibre and Cable Co., Ltd. (YOFC) taking the first place with a share of 13.3%, followed by U.S. Corning Inc. (12.9%).

YOFC: In Jun 2015, the company came to an agreement with Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd. to establish a joint venture (located in Qianjiang, Hubei Province), which is scheduled to be set up in Aug and specializes in the production of optical fiber preform with designed capacity of 450t/a.
Corning Inc.: In 2014, the company posted net sales of USD1.89 billion in China, making up 19.5% of its total. By 2014, the company had 9 manufacturing facilities in China, including one optical fiber preform manufacturing facility in Shanghai.
Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd.: The Company cooperates with Futong Group in optical fiber preform field in China, jointly building two optical fiber preform production bases- Hangzhou SEI-Futong Optical Fiber Co., Ltd. and Tianjin SEI-Futong Optical Fiber Co., Ltd. with the latter going into production in Aug 2014 and being the first optical fiber preform project in northern China.
Hengtong Optic-electric Co., Ltd.: In Dec 2014, the company developed optical fiber preform of 200mm in diameter and 6 meters in length that could be drawn 15,000 km of thread, hitting a new world record; in Feb 2015, the company made breakthroughs in "long-distance low-loss submarine optical cable-used optical fiber preform R&D and industrialization" project, and is expected to start mass production at the end of 2015.
