POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate July 2015: Prices turn around / Most notations roll over / Slight increases only for rHDPE and rPET flakes / First erosions for rPS and rPET / Downtrend likely in August	21.07.2015
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate June 2015: Substantial increases for almost all grades / Wave of primary market hikes hits the secondary sector / Upward pressure will persist for the weeks to come	18.06.2015
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate May 2015: Again increases across the board / Primary price hikes begin to affect secondary market / Feedstock scarcer and more costly / Lively demand / Upward pressure on the horizon	20.05.2015
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate April 2015: Wave of primary price increases crashes into secondary market / Particularly steep rises for high-quality grades / Uptrend expected to continue	17.04.2015
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate March 2015: Reversal in virgin material notations stops recyclate price erosion / Elimination of low prices raises lower end of the price range / Demand picks up / Recyclers plan additional hikes	18.03.2015
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate February 2015: Primary market declines cut down peak rHDPE and rPP notations / Prices of all other regrind materials drop / Supply normal / Further downward potential for rPS	18.02.2015
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate January 2015: Virgin material declines pressure regrind notations / rPE still holding up relatively well / Early January marked by stock replenishing efforts / Additional erosion likely	20.01.2015
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate December 2014: Falling virgin material notations take regrind down, too / Only rPS and rHDPE able to resist the trend / Notations likely to continue to erode	17.12.2014
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate November 2014: Notations caught between high purchasing costs and declining virgin material prices / rPP and rPET continue to plummet / Prices likely to soften across a broad front in December	19.11.2014
