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
05.06.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in April 2009: A mixed picture / ABS firmer again / PC, PA 6 and PP compounds mainly stable / POM, PBT and PMMA down / PA 6.6 falls sharply / Upswing in China brings hope of stabilisation
07.05.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in March 2009: PP compounds firmer / ABS bottoms out / PC, PA, PBT, POM and PMMA down slightly / Demand weak / Little stimulus expected in Q2 / Will producers take back autumn price increases?
06.04.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in February 2009: PP bottoms out / ABS and PC in aftershock / PA begins to slide / PBT, POM and PMMA also down / Automotive crisis dominates / Little light on the horizon for March
05.03.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in January 2009: ABS and PP compounds in free fall / PC and POM plummet by over EUR 100 t/y / Resistance for PA and PBT / PMMA still firm / Slack demand / Further decline likely
05.02.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in December 2008: Downswing rolls over into this market, too / Notations for almost all polymers lower / Only PMMA holds up / More price wars expected in Q1
07.01.2009
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in November 2008: Sluggish demand puts a sudden end to high prices / Imports exert intense pressure on ABS / Softening tendency for all standard grades
04.12.2008
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering thermoplastics in October 2008: Price movements paralysed by order cancellations / Automotive segment applies the brakes / C3-linked PP declines / Supply good / Softer prices likely despite production cutbacks
06.11.2008
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in September 2008: Price rises as Q3 ends / Most remaining calls for hikes still in place / Demand shrinks / Stability is likely in October
07.10.2008
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in August 2008: Hikes at the higher end widen the price range / Imports pressure PBT and POM / Demand turns downward at mid-month / Supply situation will dictate developments
04.09.2008
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in July 2008: Summer holiday season puts a damper on steep hikes / Some forward movement for PC, ABS and PA 6 / Upward pressure remains / Demand steers price movements
06.08.2008
POLYMER PRICES
Engineering Thermoplastics in June 2008: Q2 ends on a stable footing / Absence of imports fuels ABS / Demand weakness in southern Europe lengthens supplies in the north / Higher feedstocks propel PA, PBT and POM
