POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in January 2010: Upcurrent in Asia hits European markets / Production cutbacks clash with livelier demand / Feedstock costs drive polymers up
04.02.2010
POLYMERPRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in December 2009: Year ends on a stable footing / Quarterly contracts still preclude hikes / Supply limited by reduced production and decline in imports / Automotive continues to be lively / Rising costs drive demand
07.01.2010
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in November 2009: Most polymers stable / Feedstocks pull ABS down / PC moves in the opposite direction / Livelier demand / December market will be focused on next year's business
04.12.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in October 2009: “Classic” materials stable / Feedstock increases drive hike in ABS and PP compounds / Downward pressure mounts / Scarce PA 6.6 could be only gainer
05.11.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in September 2009: Q3 ends on a largely stable footing / Feedstocks nudge ABS and PP forward / Supply balanced / Demand somewhat slack / Cost cutting in Q4 / Market still calm
06.10.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in August 2009: Price movements mostly flat / ABS and PP up again on higher feedstock prices / Small gain for natural PA 6 / Balanced supply and firm demand likely to drive September prices upward
04.09.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in July 2009: Notations mostly flat / Only ABS and PP compounds make gains / Supply moves into balance / Demand at low level / Higher feedstocks prompt polymer hike plans
06.08.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in June 2009: Minor revival in demand but no substantial improvement / Most notations stuck at rock bottom / Producer cost increases can hardly be passed through
06.07.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in May 2009: Prices start to firm / ABS and PP up slightly / Other polymers capped / Minor price wars at lower end / Demand shows signs of life / Outlook mainly stable
