Method:
Like the Plastixx indices, the A-Plastixx indices are generated according to the principle of the "Paasche index". Each of the six indices mirror the price movement for a group of plastics key to a particular market segment. The monthly index calculation is based on the average market prices of the materials in Western Europe, weighted according to Western European consumption volumes. This weighting is updated annually.
