United States Polyethylene Terephthalate

摘要

US West Coast polyethylene terephthalate remained stable ahead of a busy season as logistics issues forced buyers to purchase domestic product, with imports assessed flat Wednesday at $1,224-$1,246/mt DDP US West Coast. US West Coast ports have seen 6-8 week backlogs due to labor issues. The West Coast ports, a primary destination for Asian-origin PET, returned to operation Tuesday after a four-day partial shutdown as port owners and workers negotiate labor contracts that expired last June.
