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
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate October 2014: rPE film notations rise slightly / Declines for rPP / Primary market surge sends PET regrind and flake prices tumbling / Regrinders hope for stability in November	21.10.2014
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate September 2014: Declining virgin material prices cut highflying rPE notations down / Both rPP and rPS prices rise slightly / rPET in grasp of seasonal effects / Higher costs prompt calls for price hikes	18.09.2014
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate August 2014: Notations a mixed bag / Very few notations respond to the decline in the primary market / Some prices actually rise / Downward pressure building	20.08.2014
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate July 2014: Following virgin material rises, cost of clean regrind also up / HDPE pipe, PP and PET production scrap tight / Possibility of additional hikes	22.07.2014
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate June 2014: Notations for regrind based on sorted production scrap rise slightly following primary market increases / Simpler grades mostly stable / Uncertain situation in Iraq driving prices up	18.06.2014
