Polyethylene prices by quick pak inc

Polyethylene prices were steady to higher, with film grades showing particular strength. The January $.05/lb price increase is essentially secured according to sellers; however, buyers will beg to differ and the market on average has thus far rallied only $.03/lb. Indeed spot Ethylene costs have soared ,but film makers contend that Polyethylene resin producers are mostly integrated and are enjoying huge margins.

Stretch Film and Resin pricing Jan 2013

The confetti was barely settled but the resin markets wasted no time starting the New Year off with a bang. Commodity resin prices have already risen $.01-.03/lb in January and the markets are poised to move still higher as new contract prices come into play. International buyers are providing underlying demand, lifting the floor of the Houston market price. Current supply/demand fundamentals are supporting producer price increase efforts and if they follow through, PE could be up a nickel.

Frequently Asked Questions Submitted to AEP Films

Frequently Asked Questions Submitted to AEP Films Should I be using a Metalocene Film? • Only if it works and is cost competitive. • A film labeled Metalocene can have any were from 5% to 100% Metalocene. • Metalocene can improve some properties and decrease others. • It depends on how the Metalocene is used and what the other layers consist of. There are a as many different ways to use Metalocene as there are different types of film on the market. • The bottom line is your concern should be focused on how the film performs in your specific application. Being sold on film composition or structure can be a game of "Smoke & Mirrors". • AEP produces films containing Metalocene and non-Metalocene. I can help you decide which product is best for your application. Should I be using a 7-Layer Film? • Only if it works. • Being 7-layer doesn't mean that the film will perform better in your application. • Some 7-layer films can use the same material in a

Another resin price increase for Feb 2013!!!

Polyethylene offers began to flow, priced up $.05/lb to reflect January price increase initiatives.

Most Resin producers have backed the increase efforts with a fresh $.04/lb nominated for February TRADE REPORTS JANUARY 2013

Sigma Stretch Film is on the move UP!!!

January 4, 2013 Dear Valued Customer, Due to rising feedstock costs, and improving global and domestic market demand, our resin suppliers have informed us of their intentions to implement a resin increase effective January 1st. In addition to this January increase, some suppliers have also announced another increase of $.04 effective February 1st which we will monitor and address at a later date. In response to the January 1st resin increase, all new orders received on or after January 28th will be priced at a 6% increase. All orders must call for immediate delivery. Based on current lead-times and shortness of resin supply, we can only accept a limited number of new orders and will be limited to less than one month of your normal purchase levels. Pricing for orders accepted is based upon local lead-times and available resin. Sigma Stretch Film reserves the right to accept or decline all orders for any reason. Please check with your local plant location. Sigma Stret
