POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene June 2015: Increases once again reach triple digits / Margins at record levels / Improvement slowly coming into sight / Notations likely to roll over or even fall in July	03.07.2015
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene June 2015: Hikes continuously diminished / Prices barely exceed cost increase / Supply improves / Some relief likely in July / Compounds still firm	03.07.2015
POLYMER PRICES PVC June 2015: Producers once again achieve significant margin improvements / Tight market drives prices up / Supply situation appears to be easing / Notations could stabilise in July	03.07.2015
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics June 2015: Price boom comes to an end / Only ABS pointing up slightly / PS already crumbling / EPS rolls over / Holiday season will dampen demand in July / Discounts expected across the board	03.07.2015
