Prices
Domestic market of polypropylene fiber
Recently, still affected by the upstream polypropylene fiber raw material prices fallen and downstream demand continues weakening, some of polypropylene fiber manufacturers selling prices have significant decrease, some of polypropylene staple fiber for purchase are in 13700-15000 yuan / ton, and there is also a higher offer at 16000-16500 yuan / ton, operation rate for overall PP manufacturers is still relatively low. Because the market price of raw materials continued to fall in PP, the processing costs of polypropylene filament have reduced. Although recently some manufacturers of polypropylene filament have purchased cheaper raw material to begin normal production, the demand of downstream textile industry still appeared weak due to the poor amount of orders. Some stakeholders still lack sufficient confidence in the market outlook.
