During the first quarter of 2025, the polypropylene glycol prices in the USA reached 1720 USD/MT in March. As per the polypropylene glycol price chart, the market grew steadily due to high demand, especially from the manufacturing and packaging industries, and strong upstream momentum. The majority of purchasers accepted higher prices with little resistance as supplies were still limited but controllable. The market moved predictably and stayed away from abrupt swings.
During the first quarter of 2025, polypropylene glycol prices in China reached 1210 USD/MT in March. Prices fell in China due to oversupply and a lackluster downstream market. Energy inputs fluctuated, but not enough to cause significant price rises. The upward movement was constrained by the conflict between conservative purchasing and high production levels. Overall, the Chinese market saw lower pricing during the quarter due to plentiful supplies and muted buying pressure.
During the first quarter of 2025, the polypropylene glycol prices in Germany reached 1360 USD/MT in March. The market experienced some initial increases, helped by fewer imports and supply shortages. However, market conditions improved when shipments restarted, and local manufacturing returned to normal. After closing earlier deals, buyers withdrew, and the weak demand from the automotive and construction industries further affected sentiment.
During the first quarter of 2025, the polypropylene glycol prices in Indonesia reached 1185 USD/MT in March. Due to high stock levels and weak downstream use, the market saw declining pricing trends. Although manufacturing production remained high, there was not enough demand to cover the excess. Short-term supply problems did not significantly change the overall bearish trend.
During the first quarter of 2025, the polypropylene glycol prices in Brazil reached 1250 USD/MT in March. Prices of polypropylene glycol (PPG) in Brazil were affected by a combination of factors, including rising raw material costs, stable supply, and steady demand. While there were minor fluctuations in the market, prices generally remained firm.
The polypropylene glycol prices in India for Q2 2022 reached 1420 USD/MT in June. The market saw a decrease during the second quarter due to weaker requirements from end-user sectors and stable supply levels. The lower cost of feedstock materials, along with adequate inventory, facilitated this price decline. Market conditions were also influenced by moderated cost pressures and steady consumption trends in the region.

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.

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.

Latest developments in the Polypropylene Glycol industry:
Polypropylene glycol or PPG refers to a polymer of propylene glycol, classified as a polyether compound. PPG is mainly employed in the production of several consumer and industrial products. Chemically, it is synthesized through the polymerization of propylene oxide, resulting in a substance that can vary in molecular weight depending on the specific application requirement. It is characterized by its solubility in water and its ability to function as a surfactant, thereby making it effective in lowering the surface tension between 2 liquids or a liquid and a solid.
The applications of PPG are diverse, ranging from the manufacturer of foams, particularly in the automotive and construction industry, to its employment as a component in hydraulic and brake fluids. PPG serves as a piece in the formulation of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food additives, where it acts as a moisturizer, stabilizer, and solvent.
