……………………………………………………………….
In a surprising but pleasant development, Chinese buyers have shown acceptance toward import homo-PP cargoes from dutiable origins at $880/ton CFR China after much deliberation and negotiation. Discussing with CommoPlast, a number of buyers expressed the expectations that the market might be heading for stabilisation despite the recent downfall in crude oil prices given the still strong propane/propylene costs.
……………………………………………………………….
Chinese PET bottle offers held largely stable in Southeast Asia this week despite the rebound in the upstream PX and PTA costs. Demand is weak due to the off-peak season. There have been reports that Chinese PET bottle plants are currently operating at about 80% capacity, making supply rather comfortable.
