Ms. Wang Yu, chief polyolefin analyst at Dow Jones,Analysis and Prospect of Polypropylene MarketShow for themeThe macro-economy in polypropylene demand, medium-and long-term supply and demand and logistics pattern, short-term supply and demand pattern and cost and price profit analysis made a outlook. Ms. Wang Yu pointed out that from the final end of the economic trend to the expectation of global polypropylene consumption demand, the global polypropylene consumption demand will be very high from 2020 to 2021, which is also due to the outbreak of commodity consumption. From 2022 to 2023, there will be very low consumption demand for polypropylene. Since this year, consumption is expected to be relatively conservative, with an expected growth rate of about 1%. By next year and the following year, consumption is expected to grow. Ms. Wang Yu expects polypropylene profits to be further compressed in the second half of this year.

PET and HDPE have been made first, and PP is the third one, which has been in existence for five years. Every detail has a large list of issues that need to be discussed repeatedly, including the continuous upgrading of technical equipment, which requires upstream polymer companies, chemical additive companies, and the final recycling industry chain to master the classification and scientific and quantitative analysis." "Only one design faces many categories in the recyclable design. Any slight change in the upstream will help the downstream recycling enterprises." "Recycling will become a new profit point for the plastics industry, which is not only a responsibility, but also a business and opportunity."
