Chinese PVC Film & Artificial Leather Makers Audit Our Wansheng DOTP Plant

On Wednesday, 2 September 2026, a group of DOTP and DCP buyers completed a hands-on factory audit at the Wansheng plant. They were Chinese manufacturers of PVC film and artificial (synthetic) leather from Sichuan, Zhejiang and Guangdong, the downstream industries that consume our plasticizers. Wansheng is a wholly-owned subsidiary invested and built by Shandong Changxing Plastic Additives. They came to walk the DOTP production line, look over the storage and loading infrastructure, meet the team behind it and talk about the next stage of cooperation.

For an overseas buyer weighing up a Chinese plasticizer supplier, this is proof that means something. Professional converters who buy plasticizers by the ton, and who understand formulation, do not cross provinces to audit a plant they are unsure of. When they arrive, put on hard hats and walk the line, they are checking supply reliability the same way an overseas buyer would, minus the flight.

Key Takeaways

  • Who visited: PVC film and artificial leather producers from Sichuan, Zhejiang and Guangdong.
  • Where: the Wansheng plant, Shandong Changxing's subsidiary running the group's 150,000 t/yr DOTP line.
  • Why: an on-site audit of DOTP/DCP production, storage and loading to strengthen cooperation.
  • Signal for buyers: China's own downstream converters verified our quality in person, and overseas importers can take that as a reliability signal.
  • Next step: continued technical exchange and cooperation on non-phthalate DOTP grades.

Audit Step 1: PPE Discipline at the West Gate

Safety comes before everything else at a plant worth trusting, and this audit began at the west gate. Before anyone stepped toward the process area, our team and the visiting representatives put on hard hats. On a live chemical site, PPE discipline is the quickest read on how well a plant is run, and it was the first thing the visitors checked.

Storage and Loading: How a Buyer Verifies Capacity and Shipping

The finished-product storage tanks and the loading and unloading yard answer a buyer's two questions better than any brochure: can you make enough, and can you ship it reliably. Our team walked the visitors through both. Rows of product tanks and the distillation column behind them showed the scale of the 150,000-ton-per-year line, while the loading area demonstrated how finished plasticizer moves out to flexitank, IBC and drum consignments.

Plant Overview: The Wansheng DOTP Base From Above

An aerial view makes that capacity claim easy to check at a glance. From above you can read the whole Wansheng site: the recycled-PET feedstock yard, the DOTP reactors and distillation train, the finished-product tank farm and the biomass unit that supplies process heat, all laid out on a clean, well-kept campus. This is the physical footprint behind the group's 300,000 tons of annual plasticizer capacity and its 3,000+ tons of regular DOTP inventory.

Why DOTP Fits PVC Film and Artificial Leather

PVC film and artificial leather are two of the strongest use cases for a non-phthalate plasticizer. Both need flexibility, low volatility and compliance, and increasingly both are exporting to markets where ortho-phthalates are restricted. During the technical discussion we mapped each visitor's own PVC film and synthetic-leather formulations against our DOTP superior, first and qualified grades, and against DCP, so each converter could pick the grade that fit their target hardness, migration resistance and cost point.

Application Recommended plasticizer Why
PVC film DOTP Low volatility, good flexibility, suits food-contact and general-purpose film; non-phthalate profile eases export compliance.
Artificial / synthetic leather DOTP Strong migration resistance and a soft, durable hand feel for coatings and synthetic leather.
Coated fabrics & cost-sensitive compounds DCP Cost-effective general-purpose plasticizer with high compatibility for less-regulated formulations.

For readers evaluating a switch, our guides on choosing the right DOTP grade for PVC film and DOTP applications in artificial leather go deeper into loading levels and compliance.

Photos From the Plant Walk

From the gate to the storage yard and the production units, the delegation covered most of the site on foot. These shots are from the walk through the raw-material yard, the processing road, the loading area and the biomass unit.

Wrapping Up: The Group Photo

The visit ended with a group photo. A full day on site gave the customers a first-hand read on Wansheng's DOTP production and supply capability. We welcome qualified buyers from China and abroad to visit the plant, and if you need samples, please contact our sales team.

Frequently Asked Questions

When and why did the domestic customers visit the Wansheng plant?

On Wednesday, 2 September 2026, representatives of Chinese PVC film and artificial leather manufacturers from Sichuan, Zhejiang and Guangdong visited the Wansheng plant for an on-site study tour and factory audit, to verify our DOTP and DCP production capability and discuss deepening cooperation.

Who are these visitors, and why is their visit meaningful for overseas buyers?

They are downstream converters who make PVC film and synthetic (artificial) leather, the exact industries that consume DOTP and DCP plasticizers. Because they buy plasticizers in volume and understand formulation, their willingness to travel and audit the plant in person is a technical check on our quality and supply reliability that international buyers can lean on.

What is the relationship between Wansheng and Shandong Changxing?

Wansheng, Jining Wansheng Environmental Materials Co., Ltd., is a wholly-owned subsidiary invested and built by Shandong Changxing Plastic Additives Co., Ltd. It operates the group's 150,000-ton-per-year DOTP line at the Wenshang Chemical Industrial Park in Jining, part of a group with 300,000 tons of annual plasticizer capacity.

Which plasticizer should PVC film and artificial leather makers use?

For PVC film, DOTP is the preferred non-phthalate plasticizer, offering low volatility, good flexibility and compliance for food-contact and general-purpose films. For artificial (synthetic) leather, DOTP delivers migration resistance and a soft, durable hand feel, while DCP remains a cost-effective option for coated fabrics and less-regulated compounds.

Can international buyers book a factory audit at the Wansheng plant?

Yes. We welcome qualified overseas buyers for on-site factory audits, laboratory tours and technical consultations covering DOTP, DCP and ethylene glycol. Contact our sales team in advance to arrange an itinerary, and we will provide free samples and a full export documentation package for your market.
