The price of polyethylene has slightly increased this week. At the beginning of the week, supported by the bullish rise in crude oil, the cost side supported a slight increase in polyethylene. On the supply side, there are many domestic polyethylene plant shutdowns for maintenance, resulting in reduced pressure on the supply side. Petrochemical companies have slightly increased their prices, while traders have followed suit with a slight increase. In terms of demand, the overall downstream demand is improving, and factories will replenish inventory in an appropriate amount after the holiday, while sales are still acceptable. But there is a certain resistance to the continuously rising high priced supply, and downstream factories have weakened their purchasing intentions.

The highest price was 8408 yuan and the lowest was 8341 yuan, a decrease of 0.20%. This week, polyethylene futures showed a strong trend at the beginning of the week, which to some extent benefited the polyethylene spot market. Afterwards, the futures market weakened, weakening support for spot prices.

The maintenance of polyethylene equipment has increased, and the supply side is expected to decrease; The demand for plastic film began to weaken in late April, and the demand for greenhouse film is in the off-season; It is expected that polyethylene prices will mainly operate in a narrow range with limited upward space.
