Polymer Prices Standard Thermoplastics

POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics trend December 2020: Prices climb on a broad front / Producers win significant margin gains / Supply bottlenecks with all materials / No respite expected in the short term	14.12.2020
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene November 2020: Producers have little success with calls for increases / Lack of imports / First signs of stockpiling in some segments / Start of December slowdown makes margin improvements unlikely	03.12.2020
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene November 2020: Homo grades flat after C3 rollover / Low copo prices pulled up slightly / Outages begin to bite / Minor hikes in December	03.12.2020
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics November 2020: Price increases across the board / Heavy premiums on undersupplied ABS market / PS now also in short supply / Significant hikes in December	03.12.2020
POLYMER PRICES PVC November 2020: Upward price trend continues / Market situation still tight / Supply bottlenecks gradually easing up / Price dynamic expected to lose momentum in December	02.12.2020
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics trend November 2020: Polyolefins see widespread rollover / Significant increases for styrenics and PVC / Availability frequently limited, PVC tight / Market expected to remain largely stable	13.11.2020
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene October 2020: Most price reductions match monomer cost decline / Demand solid in some areas but often below expectations / Rollover likely in November	04.11.2020
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene October 2020: Most prices giving way slightly in the wake of C3 reduction / Yet PP-H injection moulding and some compounds in rollover / Hardly any change expected for November	04.11.2020
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics October 2020: Divergent price trends / Slight declines for PS and EPS, ABS somewhat firmer / Supply situation also tightening for PS and EPS / Premiums in October	04.11.2020
POLYMER PRICES PVC October 2020: Price boom continuing / Plant outages keep supply short / Demand boosted by seasonal effects / Suppliers already announcing further increases for November	03.11.2020
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics trend October 2020: Prices for PE film grades fall slightly / PP outages unable to hold up prices / PVC continues upward trend / Demand generally poor for the time of year / Outlook points to stability	13.10.2020
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene September 2020: Most prices remain unchanged / Increased exports have a consolidating effect / Demand generally normal for the time of year / Rollover to be expected in October	05.10.2020
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene September 2020: Notations move sideways with C3 costs / Amid soft demand outages have little impact / Little change likely in November	05.10.2020
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics September 2020: Prices mostly in weak rollover / Slightly higher discounts for HIPS films / ABS injection moulding bucks the trend / Declining SM reference leads to price pressure in October	05.10.2020
POLYMER PRICES PVC September 2020: Prices continue upward trend helped by the tight supply situation / Demand lively / Further increases likely in October	02.10.2020
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics trend September 2020: No change with polyolefin prices / Demand below expectations / PVC producers benefit from tight availability / Weak rollover with PS and EPS	14.09.2020
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene August 2020: Producers push through maximum C2 cost hike / Converters reject margin increase / Demand somewhat too low for time of year / At best minor upward trend in September	03.09.2020
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene August 2020: Hikes remain below C3 rise / Outages have little impact due to soft demand / Notations likely stable in September	03.09.2020
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics August 2020: Rollovers predominate for PS and EPS / Slight premiums on ABS / Price corrections in both directions / Demand generally weak / Hardly any change seen for September	03.09.2020
POLYMER PRICES PVC August 2020: Price rise continues / Ethylene price hikes and poor availability drive costs / Brisk demand despite holiday period / Climbs expected again in September	02.09.2020
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics trend August 2020: Producers seldom manage to improve margins / Demand still below expectations / Imports and low-priced spot volumes virtually disappear from the market	14.08.2020
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene July 2020: Price hikes match rise in costs / Negotiating fronts harden / Some large customers think the agreed annual volumes will not be achieved / Plastics tax creates uncertainty	05.08.2020
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene July 2020: Most of the feedstock hike passed on / Producers rarely improve margins / Auto horizon slightly brighter / Increases unlikely in August	05.08.2020
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics July 2020: Hikes mostly remain below the cost transfer / Demand is much reduced / Maintenance plans could lead to allocations / Slight price increases in August	05.08.2020
POLYMER PRICES PVC July 2020: Ethylene hike provides a lift / Strong demand for profiles plus production cutbacks triggers small supply shortages / Additional volumes not generally available	04.08.2020
