by ChemOrbis Editorial Team - content@chemorbis.com
In North Africa, the firming trend has come to an end after having been in place since August. Demand across the region has plummeted further given the recent political instability across the region. Players in Algeria reported that sellers initially issued rollovers for their new November prices, before adjusting them down by $50/ton when compared to October levels amid the poor trading activity.
November offers are currently at $1070-1080/ton for LDPE, $990-1010/ton for LLDPE, $1010-1030/ton for HDPE film, $1050-1070/ton for HDPE b/m and inj., $1110-1120/ton for PPBC, $1150-1160/ton for PPRC, $1040-1050/ton for PPH raffia and inj., $1070-1080/ton for PPH film and fibre., on a CIF Algeria, cash basis.
