……………………………………………………………….
On the final trading day of the previous week, a major South Korean producer agreed to large discounts on spot homo-PP yarn to Vietnam, with deals concluding at $910/ton CIF terms. There have been reports that even at the latest prices, the producers only depleted about half of the allocations as buyers prefer to wait for the market to breach below the $900/ton threshold.
……………………………………………………………….
In China, despite a stabilising domestic ground, international suppliers continued to cut import PE offers to this market, this time, the focus was on HDPE and LDPE film. A new price list from a Saudi producer registered reductions of $45/ton on HDPE film and $30/ton on LDPE film.
