This week, PP spot prices increased, while contract prices quoted flat in Europe.
An industry source in Europe told a Polymerupdate team member, “European polypropylene spot prices rose as declining import volumes tightened supply, outweighing the impact of soft demand. Reduced offers from the Middle East limited the availability of lower-priced cargoes, while shipments from Asia continued but were insufficient to offset the overall supply tightness.”
