Polymer Prices Standard Thermoplastics

POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics trend September 2023: Significant price hikes despite weak demand / Higher monomer costs are main reason / Ordering picks up only hesitantly after summer lull / Converters buy no more than necessary	12.09.2023
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics August 2023: Higher styrene costs end downward trend of previous months / Demand remains weak / Further price increases expected in September	04.09.2023
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene August 2023: Most contracts roll over / Tendency towards firmer quotations in second half of the month / Hikes in September seem certain	04.09.2023
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene August 2023: Producers' calls for increases first refused then accepted / Budding demand in September could be stifled by extensive price rises / Pipe segment remains a concern	04.09.2023
POLYMER PRICES PVC August 2023: Prices still in reverse gear / Demand remains very weak / Prices set to pick up slightly in September	01.09.2023
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics trend August 2023: Monomers set the tone / Polyolefins largely unchanged / PS trends firmer	11.08.2023
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene July 2023: Some converters win triple-digit reductions / Holiday season further weakens demand / Somewhere between rollover and further price cuts in August	02.08.2023
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene July 2023: Downhill slide persists / C3 tumbles / Weak demand spurs fresh concessions / Pressure should ease in August	02.08.2023
UPDATE - POLYMER PRICES Styrenics July 2023: Prices continue to erode / Weak demand leads to discounts above cost reduction / Sharply increased spot prices point to price reversal in August	02.08.2023
POLYMER PRICES PVC July 2023: Prices still moving down / Reductions due to weak demand / Downward adjustments expected for August as well	01.08.2023
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics trend July 2023: All prices continue fall / Softer monomer costs, weak demand drive reductions / Further declines likely	13.07.2023
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene June 2023: Long supply and soft demand trigger declines / Compounds lose significant ground / More price cuts expected in July	04.07.2023
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics June 2023: Triple-digit discounts for all materials / Onset of holiday season further dampens demand / Prices expected to trend further down	04.07.2023
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene June 2023: Price reductions generally exceed the price drop for monomer / Low production and virtually no demand, with the holiday season yet to start	04.07.2023
POLYMER PRICES PVC June 2023: Prices still heading downwards / Reductions exceed decline in costs due to weak demand / Further price cuts on the cards for July	03.07.2023
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics trend June 2023: Significant reductions for all materials / Pressure from falling monomer costs and weak demand / Prices could crumble further in the coming weeks	13.06.2023
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene May 2023: Prices still under pressure / Soft demand pushes discounts past C3 decline / Steeper discounts likely in June	02.06.2023
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics May 2023: Colourful mix of small premiums for PS, slight discounts for EPS and rollover for ABS / June likely to bring uniform downward movement	02.06.2023
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene May 2023: Oversupply with most types / Demand unwilling to get going / C2 contract could prolong the downward spiral	02.06.2023
POLYMER PRICES PVC May 2023: Downward price movement gains momentum / Supply easily outweighs demand / Very little ordering activity by the construction sector / Triple-digit reductions possible again in June	01.06.2023
POLYMER PRICES Standard thermoplastics trend May 2023: Reductions with polyolefins and PVC / Styrenics trend firmer / Demand weak for all materials / Pressure on producers to make price concessions during the month	15.05.2023
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene April 2023: Prices follow monomer lower / Demand weak across most segments / No trend change expected in May	03.05.2023
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics April 2023: Rollover for PS, EPS / ABS trends lower / Demand remains weak / Price increases expected in May after rise in styrene reference	03.05.2023
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene April 2023: Prices move farther downward / Declining C3 reference and soft demand dominate / Compounds also see prices fall / Pressure on PP could persist in May	03.05.2023
POLYMER PRICES PVC April 2023: Downward trend continues / Price reductions, production cutbacks dominate / Rollover, further markdowns also likely in May	02.05.2023
