Epoxy resin: spring cold material cliff pay attention to "warm"

China Paint Online News:
Epoxy resin operation has been more "sad", the early stage due to the surge of raw material bisphenol A and non-stop follow-up, the price was pulled to a new level, but the new single price of the transaction has not been a quick follow-up. Just to carry out the digestion of the increase, the raw material bisphenol A because of the rush too high there are signs of turning around, epoxy resin follow-up also entered a stalemate stage. At present, the liquid epoxy resin market in East China to discuss reference in 15800-16500 yuan / ton, but the high transaction has not been heard, but such a high cost, the factory is also unwilling to low out. Huangshan and Shandong solid epoxy resin price reference in 14200-15000 yuan / ton, high-end and above is only a small single.
No matter years ago or after, raw material epoxy propane has been maintained at 8600 yuan / ton near the shock, there is no obvious increase or decrease, the pattern of large steady small movement will continue to maintain for a period of time, so the cost side to epoxy resin impact is not large. The main source of influence lies above the raw material BPA. Bisphenol A first rise and then adjust, the current reference price in East China is difficult to reach 11700 yuan / ton. Accounting down, liquid epoxy resin cost price close to 15800 yuan / ton, solid cost has reached 14500 yuan / ton, so the current price can no longer make concessions.
But according to the epoxy resin factory reaction, although the downstream plant demand after the Lantern Festival have gradually returned to normal levels, but in the face of the high level of resin is also more than expected, in addition to just need a small amount of supplement, most of the factories are in a state of slugs, procurement enthusiasm is not high. Downstream plants are not easy to accept high-priced raw materials, cost pressures are all backlogged downstream terminals, digestion will take time.
epoxy plant is currently in a dilemma, high prices even if difficult to pick up orders, in order to prevent late costs difficult to pass on, the factory can only stand at a high wait and see waiting. However, if the factory continues to pick up orders, late inventory will certainly have the possibility of increasing, inventory increase, the position of the factory will be very passive, competitive market, some small factories for the production of self-loss profit margins to make the possibility of receiving orders or exist.
So epoxy resin manufacturers should be in accordance with the current order timely adjustment of start-up, control inventory increase speed, in the profitable space as much as possible to pick up orders, after all, the long-term market also needs upstream and downstream together to maintain. In this spring cold February, do a good job of "keeping warm".
