Europe Viscose Filament Yarn Price

Q3 2024:

During Q3 2024, the viscose filament yarn prices in Europe decreased, influenced by reduced production expenses from lower feedstock costs, particularly dissolving pulp. The textiles and apparel sectors faced subdued consumer sentiment, resulting in moderate to low demand that did not align with production levels. Towards the end of the quarter, a slight boost in customer sentiment, encouraged by the European Central Bank's rate cut, was noted, yet it did not raise VFY prices due to market oversupply. Consequently, the combination of reduced production costs and limited demand maintained downward pressure on prices throughout the region.

Q2 2024:

During Q2 2024, the viscose filament yarn market in Europe witnessed significant price increases, driven by higher feedstock costs, especially due to the growing demand for wood pulp from the paper industry. The escalation in production expenses pushed manufacturers to increase VFY prices to maintain profitability. In addition, logistical issues and increasing freight costs aggravated the situation, contributing to the overall price surge. Furthermore, Germany emerged as a focal point, experiencing pronounced price fluctuations backed by strong demand in the textile industry and seasonally driven orders. These factors collectively fostered a positive market environment.

Q2 2023:

In Europe, the viscose filament yarn (VFY) market has been characterized by unstable prices resulting from a number of factors. A significant decrease in demand from the downstream apparel and home furnishings sectors was observed, largely attributed to the impact of the recession and high inflation, which affected the purchasing power of consumers. Although, the inflation rates reduced, they remained high enough to affect consumer confidence and spending. The reduced demand resulted into lower margins to the manufacturers and thoughts of production cuts as the manufacturing activity started to lower. In general, the market sentiment was very dull, and prices were volatile due to these economic and industry related challenges.

North America Viscose Filament Yarn Price

Q3 2024:

Throughout the third quarter of 2024, the viscose filament yarn market in North America maintained steady pricing, supported by balanced supply-demand dynamics and robust demand from key industries like fashion and textiles. The market's stability was enhanced by manufacturers efficiently managing production and inventory levels, ensuring a continuous supply. Moreover, accessibility of key raw materials, particularly dissolving pulp, alongside effective logistics, prevented significant price fluctuations. Despite shifts in the global market landscape, only minor price adjustments were observed. Additionally, both suppliers and consumers held positive expectations for the future, driven by an outlook of sustained demand, positioning the viscose filament yarn market on solid ground.

Q2 2024:

Throughout the second quarter of 2024, the viscose filament yarn market in North America faced a downward trend as demand from downstream industries weakened. The textile sector struggled significantly amid reduced consumption and broader challenges within manufacturing. Moreover, U.S. textile mills were hit hard, reflected in job losses and a reported contraction in manufacturing activity. The decline was further emphasized by reduced new orders and production, which extended to decreased employment rates. Additionally, a drop in apparel imports highlighted the sluggish market. These factors collectively contributed to the bearish outlook for viscose filament yarn in the region.

Q2 2023:

The North American viscose filament yarn (VFY) market was characterized by mixed trends but with fluctuating consumer taste and economic parameters. At the beginning, VFY prices rose slightly but they subsequently worsened due to poor demand from home textiles and clothing segments. Although there was enough supply and even average inventory levels, consumer purchases were discouraged by the increasing inflation, which led to a further negative impact on the market. This economic environment, where a steady supply chain resulted in no upsurge of production as demand was low, caused a drop in manufacturing activities across the region. As a result, traders and distributors adapted by reducing their mark-ups to the prevailing market conditions.

Asia Pacific Viscose Filament Yarn Price

Q3 2024:

In Q3 2024, viscose filament yarn prices in the Asia Pacific region trended downward, propelled by a decline in production costs due to lower feedstock prices. This price reduction in dissolving pulp allowed manufacturers to opt for competitive pricing tactics while preserving margins. Furthermore, demand from major downstream sectors like textiles and apparel remained stable, preventing upward pressure on prices as increased supply offset potential gains. Additionally, in India, while annual comparisons showed price drops, quarter-on-quarter figures saw slight growth. By the quarter’s close, market dynamics continued to evolve, reflecting broader production and consumption trends.

Q2 2024:

The Asia Pacific region saw a robust rise in viscose filament yarn prices during Q2 2024, driven by strong domestic and international demand. In India, particularly, price surges were further fueled by supply chain disruptions and higher production expenses linked to elevated wood pulp costs. Moreover, seasonal demand due to festivities also played a role in boosting prices. The combination of elevated demand, supply challenges, and escalating input costs created a bullish market environment, which sustained the upward pricing trend throughout the quarter. Furthermore, by the quarter's end, positive market sentiment reinforced strong viscose filament yarn price momentum in the region.

Q2 2023:

The Asia-Pacific region has been problematic for viscose filament yarn (VFY) market with prices remaining depressed. The reduction in raw materials costs, wood pulp for instance, has a negative impact on production costs. Moreover, demand from major downstream sectors, such as apparel and home furnishings, has been weak. The textile industry of the region is faced with more than 30% excess capacity, especially in the capital-intensive areas like spinning and weaving ,which is creating a lower production to manage the advancing inventories. At the same time, increasing inflation has resulted in reduced demand for textile products locally and abroad in major export markets such as the US and Europe.
