POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate May 2011: Recyclers pass costs through despite primary market at zenith / rHIPS moves sideways on virgin weakness / rPE partly on allocation / Demand drives / Continued risk of hikes	19.05.2011
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate April 2011: Price hikes dominate the scene despite easing of primary market / Many polyolefins rise significantly / Only rPS stable / Scarcity of plastic scrap drives notations further up	19.04.2011
POLYMER PRICES Standard Recyclate March 2011: Rises in primary sector hit secondary market in full force / Demand for high quality product strong / Waste availability narrows / Further hikes are likely this month	18.03.2011
POLYMER PRICES Standard recyclate February 2011: Excessive demand leads to supply battles for secondary material / Recyclers pass on only part of higher costs, but bleeding margins could force their hand going forward	16.02.2011
POLYMER PRICES Standard recyclate January 2011: Notations still climbing as new year begins / Hikes in primary sector drive the market / Material supply tighter / Fresh wave of costs leads producers to announce hikes	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 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 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	23.04.2010
