Currently, the operating rate in the market is 25.7%, an increase of 0.2 percentage points compared to last week. Although it is the peak season, downstream manufacturers have not received many new orders. Coupled with the weak fluctuations in the new material market, downstream buyers maintain their purchases at a minimal level, leading to a slow pace of market transactions. Enterprises in the recycled industry remain cautious, mostly fulfilling orders from long-term customers and flexibly arranging production schedules. Overall, the开工率变动不大this week in the recycled PE market did not change significantly.

4 Price Forecast

The recycled PE market is operating weakly, with prices mostly adjusted according to market conditions. There is a lack of favorable factors in the market, and short-term demand continues to be sluggish, with inactive trading atmosphere. Downstream manufacturers have limited orders and maintain a cautious mindset, primarily purchasing as needed, with low acceptance of high-priced materials. Recycled manufacturers are flexible in production, and supply is gradually increasing, resulting in relatively ample overall supply in the short term. The prices of substitute products continue to weaken, negatively impacting the recycled materials market. In summary, the short-term recycled market lacks strong support, and industry participants are keeping their offers stable, with actual transactions mostly conducted through negotiations.
