Market Overview Q3 Ending September 2025
Northeast Asia: In Northeast Asia, POM prices remained nearly stable, with only a marginal dip as steady demand from automotive and electronics sectors balanced against high operating rates. The keyword price index reflected cautious procurement behavior, with buyers limiting orders to immediate requirements. Feedstock availability supported consistent supply, while stable export flows prevented deeper price corrections. Overall, the region maintained a largely balanced market this quarter.
Europe: In Europe, POM prices fell sharply as demand weakened across automotive, industrial machinery, and consumer goods sectors. The keyword price index trended lower due to abundant inventories and subdued downstream activity. Competitive imports from Asia further pressured domestic producers, while lower raw material costs reinforced bearish sentiment. Despite limited resilience from niche applications, overall consumption was insufficient to sustain pricing levels.
Middle East: In the Middle East, POM prices registered a moderate decline amid sluggish procurement from automotive and construction applications. The keyword price index indicated weaker consumption trends, with distributors reporting excess stocks. Adequate feedstock supply maintained stable production levels, but limited export opportunities further contributed to downward pricing momentum. Cautious buying by converters reinforced the overall bearish market environment.
Southeast Asia: In Southeast Asia, POM prices fell as demand from consumer goods, automotive, and electronics industries softened. The keyword price index moved downward as oversupply conditions prevailed, driven by steady domestic production and limited export traction. With processors adopting conservative purchasing strategies, market fundamentals remained weak, preventing any recovery in regional values.
North America: In North America, POM prices edged higher as demand from automotive and industrial applications showed modest improvement. The keyword price index reflected increased procurement by downstream sectors, supported by stable feedstock supply and limited import competition. Seasonal strength in manufacturing activity helped producers secure firmer margins, enabling the region to buck the global bearish trend and post mild price gains.

Product Description
Polyoxymethylene (POM), also known as acetal or polyacetal, is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic derived from formaldehyde polymerization. It is characterized by high mechanical strength, rigidity, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability. POM also offers superior resistance to wear, solvents, and fatigue, making it suitable for precision components. It is widely processed through injection molding and extrusion, enabling its use in gears, bearings, fasteners, and automotive fuel system parts. In the electrical and electronics industry, POM is applied in connectors, switches, and housings. The polymer’s excellent machinability and compatibility with reinforcement additives further expand its industrial applications. Due to its durability and versatility, POM plays a critical role in high-performance engineering solutions across automotive, electronics, consumer goods, and industrial machinery sectors.
