POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate November 2016: Notations still under pressure / Oversupply results in slight erosion / Demand remains comparatively weak / Additional declines likely	18.11.2016
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate October 2016: Notations are under pressure / Largest rebates for rPS and rLDPE / Demand rather weak / Amid lack of any stimuli, no trend reversal in sight	20.10.2016
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate September 2016: Notations decline slightly across the board / rPP and rPS resist downtrend / Demand at times below expectations / Stability expected in October	22.09.2016
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate August 2016: Falling primary prices take notations down / Demand dampened by summer holidays / Stabilisation appears to set in / Cost of some secondary materials likely to rise again	19.08.2016
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate July 2016: Little movement at onset of holiday season / Solely some slight downward corrections / Availability of production scrap improves / Insiders expect rising pressure from virgin material developments	20.07.2016
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate June 2016: Notations start pointing down / Only rPP and rPS resist the trend / Muted demand results in high inventory levels / Further erosion expected in July	17.06.2016
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate May 2016: Lower end of the rPE spectrum is lifted / rHIPS notations follow the uptrend in virgin material prices / Remaining grades mostly stable / Further upward drift	19.05.2016
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate April 2016: Notations make a turnaround / First reaction to rising virgin material prices / Seasonal business picks up / Additional hikes likely	19.04.2016
