19.01.2011
POLYMER PRICES
Standard recyclate December 2010: Most hikes go through / rHDPE recyclate stable / rPP and rPS corrected upward again / Run on primary polymer trickles down / Producers are seeking fresh increases
17.12.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering recyclate December 2010: Hikes on primary market leave regrind cold / Market battles pressure rPOM / Additives drive up rPC GF / Demand surprisingly strong / Shortages could fuel upswing
17.12.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering recyclate November 2010: Mostly stable / Price rises only at the upper end of the rABS and rPA 6 range / Supply of primary material improves / Demand continues lively / Risk of increase remains
18.11.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Standard recyclate November 2010: Planned increases for rLDPE not all realised / rHDPE remains stable, rPP and rPS move up only slightly / Demand mostly continues good / Risk of hikes is still present
18.11.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Standard recyclate October 2010: Upswing for rLDPE / Weakening seen for rHDPE / Other notations firm / Trend toward undersupply / Demand strong on the whole / Continuing risk of hikes
20.10.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering recyclate October 2010: Dregs at the bottom of the market stirred up / Long-term low-priced contracts jacked up steeply / Material in the PIE range stable / Lively demand / K 2010 to point the way
20.10.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Recyclate September 2010: Diverging movements in standard segment / Adequate supply meets normal demand / Trend in primary sector caps polyolefins / For engineering grades, the calm before the storm
20.09.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Recyclate August 2010: Standard grades firm despite crumbling primary notations / Shortage of material drives rPA and rPC up steeply
19.08.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Recyclate July 2010: Some standard grades point sharply upward / Low end of engineering plastics range lifted
20.07.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Standard thermoplastic recyclate remains stable in June / Some prices decrease / Secondary engineering polymers still caught in upward spiral / Polyamide leads the price upswing
21.06.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Recyclate prices continue their upward climb in May / Hikes for almost all products as market remains tight
21.05.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Tightness of primary market spills over into secondary sector / Regrind prices rise for both standard and engineering grades / No relief likely in the short term
