| Recycled PET | Polymer & Resin | Germany | 970 USD/MT |
The recycled PET prices in the United States for Q4 2023 reached 1479 USD/MT in December. The market saw stable pricing and consistent supply levels, primarily due to modest consumption and surplus stock within the packaging and beverage sectors. Despite stable demand from various industries, the market sentiment was dampened by a slowdown in recycling operations and weaker overseas demand.
The price trend for recycled PET in China for Q4 2023 reached 1055 USD/MT in December. The Chinese rPET market witnessed a challenging period in the last quarter of 2023, marked by decreased demand for recycled materials and a significant drop in market value. The availability of scrap PET kept manufacturing expenses low, but high supply levels and weak trading activities contributed to a bearish pricing trend, complicating recovery efforts.
The price trend for recycled PET in Germany for Q4 2023 reached 970 USD/MT in December. Germany experienced a notable decline in rPET prices due to high supply and low demand. The market struggled with the influx of post-consumer products and competitive pricing from virgin PET. This led to a challenging environment for recyclers and a continued bearish trend in market conditions.

Product Description
Recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) represents a significant advancement in sustainable materials, derived from post-consumer PET products such as plastic bottles and containers. Through advanced recycling processes, PET waste is transformed into high-quality rPET, retaining the material's original properties, including durability, clarity, and strength. This recycled material is widely used in various industries, including packaging, textiles, and automotive, contributing to reduced environmental impact by minimizing landfill waste and lowering carbon emissions.
Additionally, rPET production requires less energy compared to virgin PET, further enhancing its ecological benefits. As a versatile and cost-effective alternative, rPET supports circular economy initiatives, encouraging the continuous reuse of resources. Moreover, rPET embodies an essential component in the transition towards a more sustainable and resource-efficient global economy.

Europe Recycled PET Price
The market for rPET in Europe experienced stability in supply in Q4 2023, attributed to continuous inflow of the product, but faced challenges due to lower demand. The appeal of virgin PET's lower prices and a hike in rates for the collection of post-consumer goods created a surplus of raw materials, affecting market balance. Moreover, lower demand projections from sectors like recycled packaging and beverage bottles, especially in comparison to virgin PET, further strained the market. Germany, specifically, saw a notable dip in rPET rates amid this surplus. Despite these conditions, demand for recycled products shows potential for impacting market dynamics positively in the future.

North America Recycled PET Price
The rPET prices in North America maintained a stable trend in Q4 2023, buoyed by steady demand for recycled products used in various sectors like clothing and packaging. Ample accessibility of scrap PET ensured cost-effective manufacturing, boosting a robust supply. However, reduced recycling operations and weaker international demand influenced the market environment. While demand from the end-use sectors like automobile and construction offered some support, overall trading remained subdued due to sufficient stocks in the packaging and beverage sectors, contributing to price stability. Throughout the quarter, the U.S. market experienced continuous supply levels and moderate demand, with no major shifts in price trends or plant shutdowns reported.

Middle East and Africa Recycled PET Price
The rPET market in the Middle East and Africa displayed a bearish trend during the fourth quarter of 2023. High supply levels, driven by abundant scrap PET, kept production costs low, yet demand from key sectors like textiles and bottles stayed subdued. Support came from consistent demand in industries like construction and automobile, stabilizing the market to a small extent. Challenges arose from falling virgin PET prices and a surge in collection rates of post-consumer goods, complicating market recovery efforts for recyclers. Despite these hurdles, Saudi Arabia's market exhibited modest demand and supply, though overall trading activity in the region remained limited.

The Asia-Pacific rPET market encountered difficulties in Q4 2023, driven by lower consumption in industries producing recycled packaging and bottle products. Surplus accessibility of scrap PET led to low manufacturing expenses and a high market supply, but demand stayed weak. The downturn in trading operations also pressured prices, exacerbated by declining virgin PET prices and a higher rate for collection of post-consumer goods, complicating efforts for market recovery. This quarter also saw no disruptions in production. The APAC market, particularly in China, witnessed significant value drops, underlining a challenging environment for recyclers as they navigated an increasingly competitive market landscape.
