Show Notes
This week’s Resin Market Moves breaks down how supply-side events and feedstock pressure are shaping resin pricing early in 2026.
We cover:
- PE force majeure and rising January nominations
- PP feedstock-driven pricing pressure
- PVC capacity closures and pricing risk
- PS increases tied to benzene
- What rising RMC means for engineering resins
This is not a uniform upcycle—it’s a selective, volatility-driven market. Buyers who focus on inventories, operating rates, and feedstocks will retain leverage.
