Europe Polypropylene Glycol Price Trend

Q1 2025:

As per the polypropylene glycol price index, due to limited supply and import restrictions, prices were stronger. Purchase flexibility was restricted by disruptions brought on by local plant problems and transportation delays, which momentarily raised values. After securing earlier volumes, buyers cut back on procurement, but downstream demand outside of packaging, particularly in the construction and automotive industries, remained weak. As a result, sellers adjusted their offers to reflect the softer demand, as shown by the market prices' decline in the second half of the quarter.

Q2 2022:

The market prices in Europe declined from April to June in 2022. Although propylene prices initially rose in April, they fell sharply because of weak consumption across end-user sectors such as polyurethane and other derivatives. The ample availability of raw materials pushed down the product prices. Reduced purchasing interest from downstream contributed to this downward trend, as cost pressures from feedstock propylene oxide softened in the region.

This analysis can be extended to include detailed polypropylene glycol price information for a comprehensive list of countries.

North America Polypropylene Glycol Price Trend

Q1 2025:

Reflecting the upward trend of upstream inputs, the market exhibited a steady growth trajectory in the first quarter of 2025. Firm pricing was supported by a relatively tight but steady supply. Stable growth was facilitated by the industrial and packaging sectors' strong interest. This market saw less volatility than others, with strong downstream uptake and consistent production rates supporting price stability. Moreover, the market was in a confident mood, supported by steady demand and predictable patterns.

Q2 2022:

In North America, the product prices declined between April and June, primarily influenced by a drop in feedstock propylene oxide prices. This reduction in primary material costs was driven by weak consumption across end-user sectors and a decrease in purchasing activity. Additionally, naphtha prices fell, ensuring an adequate stock of raw materials for downstream derivatives, further pushing prices down. The decreased operational rates also contributed to the reduction in prices, as industries faced less financial pressure.

Q1 2025:

Asia's market was under negative pressure, mostly as a result of a lackluster upstream sector. Despite sporadic increases in energy prices, market sentiment was not considerably improved. Price levels were kept low by large stocks and cautious restocking operations. End-use consumption stayed modest in spite of continuous manufacturing. Minor price changes were caused by temporary supply disruptions, but the overall trend remained negative. There was little trading activity and a cautious buyer attitude. The overall slow demand and abundant supply were reflected in the regional price trend statistics, which showed a steady and slow drop.

Q2 2022:

During the second quarter of 2022, the Asia Pacific market saw a continuous decline, mainly driven by lower requirement from polymer end-user industries, which caused propylene oxide prices to fall steadily. The market experienced little cost pressure from upstream materials, supported by consistent feedstock demand and adequate stock levels that ensured a stable supply. Additionally, COVID-19 restrictions in China further added to the price drop by limiting market activity.
