There are many reasons for the price difference between the domestic market and the international market, mainly including the following points:


First, raw material cost differences

1.Pulp and raw material prices: Pulp and other raw materials are the basis for the production of thermal paper, and their price fluctuations directly affect the cost of thermal paper. Domestic and foreign pulp market supply and demand conditions, trade policies, exchange rate changes and other factors may lead to differences in raw material costs.

2.Special coating materials: Long-acting three heat-proof paper requires special coating materials to achieve waterproof, oil-proof, anti-fouling and other functions. There may be differences in the research and development, production technology and cost of coating materials at home and abroad, which will affect the price of products.


Second, differences in production technology and efficiency

1.Production technology level: There may be differences in the production technology level of long-acting thermal paper at home and abroad. Technologically advanced enterprises can control production costs more effectively and improve product quality, thus gaining a price advantage in the market.

2.Production efficiency: The level of production efficiency also affects the cost of the product. The differences between domestic and foreign enterprises in production equipment, process flow, automation degree, etc., may lead to different production efficiency, and then affect product prices.


Third, market demand and competition

1.Market demand: domestic and foreign markets for long-term three thermal paper demand is different, the size of the demand, growth rate and stability and other factors will affect the price of the product. In general, markets with high demand and rapid growth may have relatively high product prices.

2.Competition: Competition in domestic and foreign markets will also affect product prices. In the highly competitive market, enterprises may adopt the strategy of price reduction in order to compete for market share; In less competitive markets, firms may maintain or raise prices.


Fourth, trade policy and tariffs

1.Trade policy: The difference in domestic and foreign trade policies, such as tariffs, anti-dumping duties, import quotas, etc., may have an impact on the market price of long-acting thermal paper. These policies may increase the cost of imported products and thus their market prices.

2.Exchange rate movements: Changes in exchange rates can also affect price differentials in domestic and foreign markets. When the domestic currency appreciates, the relative price of imported goods may fall; Conversely, when the domestic currency depreciates, the relative price of imported goods may rise.


Fifth, brand and sales channel differences

1.Brand influence: Well-known brands at home and abroad have different influences in the market, and brand premium may also lead to product price differences. Well-known brands tend to have higher market recognition and consumer loyalty, which enables them to maintain higher product prices.

2.Sales channels: Differences in domestic and foreign sales channels may also affect product prices. Different sales channels have different costs and efficiencies, which affect the final selling price of the product.


In summary, there are many reasons for the price difference between the domestic market and the international market, including raw material costs, production technology and efficiency, market demand and competition, trade policies and tariffs, and brand and sales channel differences. These factors interact together to determine the price level of domestic and foreign markets.
