As reported earlier, the distribution PE market in Indonesia has been moving in an opposite direction compared to the official price list from the local producer or the regional market. Last week, Indonesian traders slashed locally held Malaysian HDPE and LLDPE film by IDR200,000 – 500,000/ton for October delivery. The heavy influx of previously purchased cargoes and fear of a cloudy demand outlook is blamed for the development.
“The market is currently driven by cost factors. The demand in Indonesia is not strong enough to support any hike at the moment,” said, a market source.
It has been several weeks converters in the PE packaging sector complained of a constant decline in new orders. In certain areas, these converters even re-sell their on-hand raw materials stocks, creating more competition in the already weak market.
