The terminal demand is limited, and downstream consumers are depleting existing inventory. The regenerated chemical fiber plants are experiencing poor sales, and under a cost-control mindset, the pressure to lower raw material procurement prices remains unchanged. On the cleaning plant side, future expectations are weak, with average operating loads and a tendency to produce as needed without any inventory stocking plans. However, currently, it is the off-season for bottle recycling, providing some support on the supply side. The regenerated PET market prices are mainly digesting the existing declines, and it is expected that the regenerated PET bottle flake market prices will operate weakly and steadily tomorrow.
