Polymer Prices Recyclate Engineering Thermoplastics / Recyclate

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
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate December 2015: PA and PC downslide comes to a halt / Prices likely to bottom out soon / Demand drops significantly in December / January order books nevertheless already full	21.12.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate November 2015: Downtrend in unreinforced rPA continues / Other grades mostly roll over / Availability suffices to meet stable demand / Processors busy securing volumes for January	20.11.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate October 2015: PA and PC notations take a nosedive following virgin material declines / Other regrind materials mostly stable / Demand quite respectable towards year's end	21.10.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate September 2015: Little movement / Cost declines from petrochemicals and primary markets have not yet filtered through / rPOM slips / rABS and rPP compounds prices could decline	21.09.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate August 2015: Prices roll over across the board / Holiday season dictates supply and demand / Return to normality in the next few weeks / Possible upturn with regrind POM and PC	21.08.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate July 2015: Most grades trend sideways / Availability of production scrap largely suffices to meet demand / rPC and rPP compounds the sole exceptions / rABS prices could erode in August	22.07.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate June 2015: Substantial rises for rPC and rPP compounds / Despite upward pressure, all other grades mostly roll over / Notations still caught in upwind	19.06.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate May 2015: Mixed picture / rABS, rPC and rPP compounds tend upwards / Minor decreases with rPA / Wave of price hikes gradually impacting base material rates / Upturn likely to continue	21.05.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate April 2015: Commodity-related secondary materials show first signs of upward movement / Some production scrap tighter and more expensive / rPA and rPOM stable / Upward pressure remains	20.04.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate March 2015: Notations largely stable / Only rPA sees slight erosion / Production scrap trending tight / Demand picks up / Prices likely to move in different directions at onset of Q2	19.03.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate February 2015: Notations stabilise / Only peak prices trimmed / Solely rPP slips markedly / Turnaround likely in the coming weeks	19.02.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate January 2015: Erosion across a broad front / Primary market declines start having an effect / Many buyers hold back in anticipation of further price reductions / Market generally calm	21.01.2015
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate December 2014: Peak prices crumble on a broad front / Wide gap to virgin material still protects rPA 6.6 and rPC/ABS blends / Demand low / Prices expected to erode	18.12.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate November 2014: Notations mostly stable / rPOM sheds a few more feathers / rPA 6 beginning to crumble / Strong demand as a result of buyers' strategic evasive manoeuvres / Notations likely to erode	20.11.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate October 2014: Polyamide regrind down slightly / rPOM increasingly under pressure from cheap Asian virgin material imports / Other grades mostly stable / Market likely to calm at year-end	22.10.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate September 2014: Uneven trends / rABS, rPP and rPA 6 point down slightly / rPC and rPA 6.6 firmer / All signs point to stability / "Fakuma" trade fair could give the market a sense of direction	19.09.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate August 2014: Prices remain stable / Primary market rises have yet to have an impact / Weak euro dampens competition from imports / Prices could rise soon	21.08.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate July 2014: Stability dominates the picture / Increases in primary prices have not yet seeped through / Asian imports hold prices down / Demand still robust / Price hikes becoming more probable	23.07.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate June 2014: Stability across the board / Hikes loom in the coming weeks	19.06.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate May 2014: Marked upward trend / Initial rises mainly at the lower end of the range / Only rPOM declines in the face of heavy import pressure / Price upturn likely to intensify	21.05.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate April 2014: PIE range rises marginally at both ends / Input material stable at high level / Strong demand from automotive / Recyclers plan hikes in May	17.04.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate March 2014: Price gap to primary market widens / Regrind notations mostly roll over amid disaccord and import pressure / Hikes likely in the coming months	20.03.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate February 2014: Notations stable / Competition keeps hikes at bay / Demand livens up / Soaring benzene drives costs higher / Latent risk of increases next month	19.02.2014
POLYMER PRICES Engineering Recyclate January 2014: A mostly quiet start to 2014 / Only occasional small reductions with rPA / Demand livens up / No more than a moderate risk of a rise in February	22.01.2014
