03.02.2023
POLYMER PRICES
PVC January 2023: Prices still in reverse / Intense discussions on starting price for 2023 / Demand remains weak / Rollover likely for February
02.02.2023
POLYMER PRICES
Standard thermoplastics trend January 2023: Polyolefins, PVC still in reverse / Styrenics turn upwards / Weak demand continues in new year / Broad reductions expected
16.01.2023
POLYMER PRICES
Polyethylene December 2022: Prices still in reverse mode / Focus on starting price for 2023 / Further reductions probable in January, at least for LDPE and HDPE
04.01.2023
POLYMER PRICES
Styrenics December 2022: Prices plummet once again / Processors' destocking reduces an already weak demand / Downward trends of prices and demand expected to reverse in January
04.01.2023
POLYMER PRICES
Polypropylene December 2022: Tough negotiations for the year's first contract / Production low, but imports swell volumes / Balance could return in January / Supply improving parallel to orders
04.01.2023
POLYMER PRICES
PVC December 2022: Price pressure remains / Tough negotiations determine 2023 starting prices / Further reductions likely in January
03.01.2023
