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
