18.03.2021
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering recyclate February 2021: Major increases predominate / Base material mostly tight and expensive / Higher prices expected in March 2021 as well / No easing of the situation with PA 6.6 recyclate
16.02.2021
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering recyclates January 2021: Considerable hikes across the board / Tight primary markets creating a shortage of base materials / Good demand expected to result in considerable price hikes
19.01.2021
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering recyclate December 2020: Occasional increases filter through to recyclate material / Further movement expected in January / Supply of base material sometimes inadequate / Bottlenecks on primary markets
18.12.2020
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering recyclate November 2020: Prices of reinforced types rise due to bottleneck with short glass fibres / Automotive demand much livelier / Across-the-board increases for secondary material unlikely before January
18.11.2020
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering recyclate October 2020: Prices stay put in October / First signs of a possible move to lift prices for some polycarbonate and polyamide materials / Demand mostly modest
20.10.2020

19.05.2020
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering recyclate April 2020: Most recycled material suppliers take prices over into April / Processing comes to a standstill and restricts plastics scrap availability / Price cuts probable
20.04.2020
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering recyclate March 2020: Reductions only for recycled polyamide 6.6 GF and polycarbonate / Supply plentiful / Wide-ranging price cuts expected in April / Fall in virgin material prices and coronavirus-related slump in demand
19.03.2020
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate February 2020: Recycled ABS, PA and PC see a few price cuts / Weak demand slows business considerably / Coronavirus delays mould supplies from China
19.02.2020
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate January 2020: Poor demand leads to rollovers everywhere / Prices may have bottomed out in many cases / PA 6.6 recyclate unlikely to escape reductions
21.01.2020
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate December 2019: Prices down for nearly all regrind types / Significantly weaker demand at year-end / Nevertheless surprisingly strong order-book situation for January and February
19.12.2019
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate November 2019: Notations unchanged with an uninspiring month / Demand picks up only slightly / Pressure from primary sector continues
20.11.2019
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate October 2019: Prices roll over / Demand very weak for the time of year / Many recyclate producers have their backs to the wall / Gap between primary and secondary PA is too small
18.10.2019
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate September 2019: First price cuts in mid-month / Order activity expected to remain slow in October / Price cuts likely to spread
19.09.2019
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate August 2019: Only a few minor price reductions / Rollover predicted across the board in September
20.08.2019
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate July 2019: Notations give way across the board / Only recycled polyamide 6.6 and certain rPOM and rPC grades escaping downtrend / Decline set to affect all materials in August
19.07.2019
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate June 2019: Minor corrections with ABS and polycarbonate / Sluggish demand in automotive segment / Overall demand for regrind material nevertheless good / Price cuts likely with PA and PP compounds
20.06.2019
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate May 2019: Secondary market quiet / Recycled PP compounds an exception / Demand improves slowly / Little change likely in June
20.05.2019
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate April 2019: Notations largely stabilise / Only occasional softening with rPA 6 and rPC / Little change expected in May
18.04.2019
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Recyclate March 2019: Weak volume calls from automotive industry depress prices / Some further discounts in April
