POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate July 2016: Notations unchanged apart from rABS and rPP compounds / Other materials reflect primary market's stability / Few changes expected in August	21.07.2016
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate June 2016: Higher feedstock notations have little effect on recyclate prices / Small upward corrections for rABS, rPA 6 and rPC / Market jitters about future indexing of PP	20.06.2016
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate May 2016: General uptrend increasingly impacts secondary market / Threat of widespread hikes / Only exception is rPOM	20.05.2016
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate April 2016: Downtrend comes to an end / Initial hikes for rABS, rPC and rPP / Notations likely to continue rising in May / Numerous holidays will impact business activity	20.04.2016
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate March 2016: Only minor price reductions / Feedstocks expected to rise / Upward trend with primary material should stabilise recyclate prices / Early Easter will put a damper on demand	18.03.2016
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate February 2016: Declines become more widespread / Cheaper virgin material increasingly pressures regrind / Primary market slide expected to bottom out	18.02.2016
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate January 2016: Virgin material declines ring in slight fall for most regrind grades / Only rABS and rPOM hold stable / Top-up effect drives demand / Notations expected to bottom out	20.01.2016
