High-Density Polyethylene Latin America

摘要

HDPE Platts price assessments were at the same levels this week with Asia offering small increases of $20/mt in September and Latin producers still deciding offer levels for the export market. "It's still difficult to say where the polyethylene offer levels for export are going to be for September because we are waiting for news from the US. If the petroleum prices in the US and Europe go down, we might have some resin offer price reduction[s] for the export market, but if the petroleum prices are at least stable, we could have some PE offer price increases," said a source at Braskem. August Brazilian HDPE offers to Peru and Ecuador were at $1,560/mt CFR for film, $1,540/mt CFR for blow molding, and $1,600/mt CFR for injection. Brazilian offers to Colombia during August were at $1,600/mt CFR for HDPE blow molding and film and $1,680/mt CFR for injection.
