Engineering Recyclate April 2018: Little change this month / Upturn probable in coming weeks / Demand quite reasonable of late / Still minor delivery delays

Engineering Recyclate March 2018: Respite for price rises / rPA 6.6 and rPOM nevertheless on the up / rABS and rPA 6 rather quiet / rPC awaits next surge

Engineering Recyclate February 2018: Prices for all types on the up / Extremely tight supply situation with base material / No relief on the horizon / Significantly longer delivery times

Engineering Recyclate January 2018: Rollovers predominate in December / Hikes probably only as of February / Base material scarce and expensive in part / Order situation still good

Engineering Recyclate December 2017: Only a few minor increases / Strong demand for regrind material expected in new year / Availability of base material likely to deteriorate

Engineering Recyclate November 2017: Prices remain unchanged apart from ABS / Tense situation with base material / Strong demand for time of year / Stability should prevail until end of 2017 / Small increases likely in January for some products

Engineering Recyclate October 2017: Prices move in different directions / Uptrend for rABS, rPOM, rPP and rPC/ABS blends / Some decreases for rPA 6 / Demand reasonable / Base material remains expensive

Engineering Recyclate September 2017: Recycled ABS and PP compounds up slightly / Demand grows after holiday season / Few supply restrictions / Base material remains expensive

Engineering Recyclate August 2017: Prices rollover in all cases / Base material remains expensive / Situation eased by fall in demand / Minor reductions likely for rPA and rPOM in September / Secondary PP compounds tending upwards

Engineering Recyclate July 2017: Prices calm down as the holiday season gets underway / Stability predominates / Only rPOM rises again / Next few weeks likely quiet

Engineering Recyclate June 2017: PC and POM regrind material partly see marked increases / Lively demand from all segments / Rollover probable in July with the exception of polyamides

Engineering Recyclate May 2017: Most prices tend sideways / June expected to see only little price movement as adjustments on the primary market trickle through / Ongoing strong demand likely to ease

Engineering Recyclate April 2017: Recent price increases across the entire portfolio / Boom in demand / Availability of production scrap considerably tighter in some cases / Demand only minimally slowed by holiday period

Engineering Recyclate March 2017: Massive price increases / Peak still not reached / Lively demand results in the first bottlenecks / Recycling companies near to their capacity limits

Engineering Recyclate February 2017: Increases on the primary market begin to impact secondary products / Response with PA and PC/ABS blends / Adequate supply, demand and capacity utilisation / Base material likely to become more expensive in March

Engineering Recyclate January 2017: Little movement in January / Reasonable ordering activity with availability normal / Price rises likely in February on a broad front / ABS will be affected most

Engineering Recyclate December 2016: Secondary materials unchanged at year's end / Demand significantly weaker / Flood of orders for Q1 / Price hikes likely for some grades in new year

Engineering Recyclate November 2016: Notations mostly stable / Uptrend likely / With year-end approaching, demand takes another dip / Abundance of scrap material

Engineering Recyclate October 2016: Notations predominantly stable / Individual peaks for rPA and rPOM are capped / Demand below expectations / Little effect felt from producers' calls for hikes on the primary market

Engineering Recyclate September 2016: Most prices continue to crumble / Primary market developments put recyclers under pressure / Demand subdued even after end to the holidays
