POLYMER PRICES PVC September 2018: Slight drop to a rollover in most cases / Combination of disappointing demand and good supply puts pressure on prices / No significant momentum with demand expected in October	02.10.2018
POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend September 2018: Only minor changes with polyolefins / Marked price increases limited to styrenics / Demand picks up after holiday period	14.09.2018
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene August 2018: Notations remain flat / Slight impetus for hikes melts in summer sun / September could see increases	05.09.2018
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene August 2018: Holiday lull dominates picture / Lack of demand weakens prices / Some minor reductions despite stable costs / Consolidation possible in September	05.09.2018
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics August 2018: Rollover results after slight increase in SM / Full cost transfer only for polystyrene / Problems with delivery / Holiday season governs demand / Hikes expected in September	05.09.2018
POLYMER PRICES PVC August 2018: Reductions for standard PVC / Calls for a rollover fall on deaf ears / Market still tending toward oversupply / Hopes of seasonal pickup in demand for September	04.09.2018
POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend August 2018: Little market activity in the hot holiday month / Most notations roll over / Price hikes only in styrene chain	14.08.2018
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics July 2018: Prices follow the cost reduction / Construction season stimulates EPS / Demand for PS and ABS drops / Further price declines expected in August	03.08.2018
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene July 2018: Prices only slowly orientate to fall in ethylene reference / Changes range from rollovers to moderate reductions / Special offers disappear / August tending very quiet	03.08.2018
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene July 2018: No major price movements / Slack demand slows momentum / Firmer reference means fewer concessions in August despite lull	03.08.2018
POLYMER PRICES PVC July 2018: Price pressure arises from softer cost structure and trend towards oversupply / Holiday period weakens already low demand / August expected to be rather weak	02.08.2018
POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend July 2018: Producers aim to pocket fall in reference price / Demand tends downwards / Holiday season casts shadow / Further softening possible	13.07.2018
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene June 2018: Producers still finding it difficult to factor in costs / Critical margin thresholds evidently reached / Attitudes harden / Fierce battles over stability likely in July	04.07.2018
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene June 2018: Cost pass-through for standard grades fails / Distributors seize chance / Compounds rise ahead of summer lull / July notations likely stable	04.07.2018
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics June 2018: Producers fail to meet pricing targets / Purchasers prove to be highly resistant / Price increases largely remain below cost increases / SM reference trending down / Discounts likely	04.07.2018
