摘要

Polypropylene import assessments into Peru were stable this week, assessed Wednesday at $1,690-$1,700/mt CFR basis for homopolymer material and at $1,740-$1,750/mt CFR basis for co-polymer material. Homopolymer offers for India-origin material were heard at levels of $1,720/mt CFR basis, while a US-based trader said sellers were targeting $1,710-$1,730/mt CFR basis into the region. Regional producers were heard offering higher, with homopolymer talked at levels of $1,750-$1,790/mt CFR basis for Chilean and Colombian material and co-polymer well into the $1,800s/mt CFR basis, sources said. Brazil’s major producer Braskem was also heard raising prices into the region, but confirmation could not be obtained by time of publication. In Brazil, homopolymer assessments were stable week on week at $1,690-$1,700/mt CFR basis amid slow demand in the region, sources said.
