It is worth noting that spot homo-PP yarn offered in the distribution market has hit IDR14,450,000/ton excluding VAT ($911/ton), cash equivalent, which captured buying attention among Indonesian customers.
“But we think the market is nearing the bottom, especially for PE. Any additional decreases might be very limited,” said, a trader.
In fact, sources cited the reduced PE supply from Malaysia following the maintenance shutdown at PrefChem’s LLDPE plant while the upcoming overhaul at PT Lotte Chemical Titan Nusantara in September might help to halt the interminable downtrend in recent months.
“Besides, the demand for PE has been stable over the past several weeks, which creates a foundation for a rebound once supply curtails,” added, a market source.
