High-Density Polyethylene Latin America

摘要

High density polyethylene import pricing into Latin America dipped this week as Asia continues to push lowerpriced product into the continent. Sources have indicated that some Asian sellers are offering $20/mt discounts for bulk orders. In Brazil, the HDPE film assessment dropped $10/mt week on week to a Wednesday assessment of $1,750-$1,760/mt CFR basis, and blowmolding and injection were down $30/mt to assessments of $1,730-$1,740/mt CFR and $1,730-$1,740 CFR basis, respectively. Saudi Arabia-origin film is being offered into Brazil $1,770-1,780/mt while both blowmolding and injection were offered to $1,740/mt CFR Brazil. US-origin continues to be talked high with film heard offered in the $1,800/ mt CFR range by a Mercosur source.
