Demand for LLDPE weak in China - Mar 11, 2011 [14:15]
LLDPE prices in Asia this
week were assessed flat in some parts of Asia while in other parts,
priced firmed.
CFR Far East Asia prices were assessed flat at the USD 1415/mt levels
while CFR South East Asia prices were assessed up at the USD 1450/mt
levels.
A trader a polymerupdate team member spoke with said, “ in key markets
like China, the buying mood is dull. Upstream ethylene prices are
showing signs of softness owing to waning demand trends on the one hand
and reports of improved availability on the other. This has impacted
purchase sentiments in the downstream PE markets with bids for LLDPE in
China heard down this morning at below the USD 1400/mt levels.”
In China this week, contrary to market expectations, Sinopec hiked its
ex-works price of LLDPE this week by Yuan 200/mt to Yuan 11300/mt.

LLDPE prices in Europe race higher - Mar 7, 2011 [13:30]
LLDPE prices in Europe last week raced higher. With feedstock ethylene contract rates settling up Euro 60/mt at Euro 1195/mt for March, producers of LLDPE felt justified in revising their contract rates.
LLDPE contract prices were assessed up at the Euro 1460/mt FD North West Europe and FD Italy levels while spot prices were assessed up at the Euro 1300/mt FD North West Europe levels.
Supporting the price increase were high prices of crude and naphtha which also prompted producers polled to confirm their intentions of continuing to pursue additional increases in a bid to further improve margins.
