03.10.2013
POLYMER PRICES
Standard Thermoplastics Trend September 2013: Polyolefin rise held to cost increase / PVC and styrenics with slightly more momentum / No across-the-board easing / Only PE tending weaker
13.09.2013
POLYMER PRICES
Standard Thermoplastics August 2013: Notations rise on a broad front and exceed costs / Demand in summer holiday season driven by pre-buying / Substantial increases likely in September
04.09.2013
POLYMER PRICES
Standard Thermoplastics PVC August 2013: Base material hikes exceed monomer rise / Blending components drive compounds higher / Price momentum could pick up in September
04.09.2013
POLYMER PRICES
Standard Thermoplastics Trend August 2013: Hikes overcompensate cost rise / Supply limited by production cuts and outages / Demand strong for a summer month / Prices could climb further
13.08.2013
POLYMER PRICES
Standard Thermoplastics July 2013: All products rise despite stagnating costs / Market tight due to poor supply and normal demand / Monomer-plus-margin strategy drives calls for hikes
05.08.2013
POLYMER PRICES
Standard Thermoplastics PVC July 2013: Notations surprisingly on the rise / Producers push through margin improvements / Market situation tightens / Cost surge fuels new demands
05.08.2013
POLYMER PRICES
Standard Thermoplastics Trend July 2013: Moderate increases for most products / Sharp output cuts / Demand still sluggish / Rising crude oil notations support producer hike plans
