Polymer Prices Standard Thermoplastics

POLYMER PRICES Styrenics December 2015: Slight SM increase generates updraught for notations / Demand above expectations / Supply tightness especially for PS / Minor SM drop may result in weak rollover in January	06.01.2016
POLYMER PRICES PVC December 2015: Base grades caught in strong rollover / Blends stable / Paste notations rise slightly / Costs expected to fall in January / Demand likely to pick up	05.01.2016
POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend December 2015: Notations move up / PE, PP and PS hikes mostly caused by supply bottlenecks / Bank holidays curtail demand / No signs of improvement	15.12.2015

POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend October 2015: Declines at best equal to cost reduction / PP producers restrict output to pocket some of the lower costs / PS could slip further	14.10.2015
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene September 2015: Notations fall significantly more than the monomer reference price / HD grades tend somewhat firmer / Many converters hold back with their buying activities / Price decline in October likely to be less marked than before	05.10.2015
POLYMER PRICES PVC September 2015: Producers pass on ethylene cost relief / Margins successfully defended / Cheap olefins pressure additives / Tough negotiations on the table in October	05.10.2015
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics September 2015: Standard grades mostly follow SM reference / EPS and ABS also pulled down / Significant acceleration in October caused by styrenics monomer crash	05.10.2015
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene September 2015: Rebates for standard grades exceed monomer's fall / Downswing loses momentum / Prices to continue downward in October / VW crisis clouds compound outlook	05.10.2015
POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend September 2015: Fall in polyolefin notations exceeds cost reduction / PVC and PS declines in line with the feedstocks / Demand more subdued than expected	15.09.2015
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene August 2015: Price cuts slightly exceed cost reduction / Market situation returning to normal / Imports improve supply situation / Specified HD types remain short / Further significant reductions expected in September	03.09.2015
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics August 2015: Notations give way / Rebates mostly exceed cost relief / Summer lull and expectations of price drop curb demand / Fresh SM decline will trigger further concessions	03.09.2015
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene August 2015: Price reductions slightly greater than price relief / Producers‘ margins still well-padded / Market trending long / Downslide will gather speed in September	03.09.2015
POLYMER PRICES PVC August 2015: Producers pass on proportionate cost rise / Tough price round ends in a stalemate / Fall in titanium dioxide impacts rigid blends / Additional declines expected in September	03.09.2015
POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend August 2015: Price cuts for PE and PVC still smaller than cost reduction / PP often a little higher / PS follows closely in the footsteps of SM / Imports more plentiful / Continuing price pressure	17.08.2015
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene July 2015: Weak rollover dominates / Supply not yet sufficiently balanced / An improvement is nevertheless evident / Prices expected to fall in August / Demand will dictate the size of the reductions	05.08.2015
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene July 2015: Standard grades tumble farther than monomer / Supply mostly back to normal as imports pad / Base compounds regather momentum / Price plunge in August	05.08.2015
