The current EPDM rubber prices underscore the material’s vital role in high-performance industries such as automotive and construction, with consistent demand and supply chain pressures contributing to a stable or upward global price trend.

Key Regional Price Trends and Market Drivers:

USA

EPDM rubber prices in the USA reached USD 2560/MT in June 2025. The decline in feedstock costs, particularly for ethylene and propylene, helped lower production expenses, resulting in moderate price levels for the final product.

China

China’s EPDM prices settled at USD 2290/MT in Q2 2025. Despite rising domestic production costs, ample supply from imports prevented major price increases. However, exports declined due to weaker international demand and the impact of US tariffs.

Germany

In Germany, EPDM rubber prices stood at USD 2831/MT during the second quarter of 2025. Stable domestic production and reliable import availability ensured consistent supply, while steady demand from the automotive and construction sectors helped maintain market balance.

Brazil

Brazil recorded EPDM rubber prices at USD 2363/MT in June 2025. The market faced logistical hurdles with delayed imports, creating concerns over potential shortages that could affect downstream manufacturing activities.

South Africa

South Africa witnessed the highest regional EPDM rubber price at USD 3672/MT in Q2 2025. Trade disruptions, including shipping delays and global tensions, led to supply instability and price volatility, although demand from key end-use industries remained firm.
