Polyester Staple Fibre Price, New, Demand & Supply | ChemAnalyst

Throughout the third quarter, the market values of Polyester Staple Fibre (PSF) price consistently lingered at the lower spectrum in comparison to the preceding quarter. This prolonged downward trajectory was attributable to an ongoing surplus in the local downstream textile industries. Consequently, a number of producers scaled back their PSF manufacturing activities in response to subdued purchasing trends in the region during July, exacerbating the overall downtrend. This reduction became apparent through the decline observed in the Purchasing Managers’ Index in July 2023, signifying a contraction in the manufacturing sector. The contraction persisted into August, as PSF inventory levels remained elevated in the region amid diminishing new orders. According to the data, exports of textile and clothing goods totaled 27.115 billion US dollars, marking a year-on-year decrease of 18.38%, coupled with a 3.57% decline compared to August. The continuous decline in PSF exports from China to the US contributed to the sustained downtrend in prices throughout September.

In the third quarter of 2023, the prices of German Polyester Staple Fibre (PSF) were notably lower compared to the preceding half of the year. Throughout the quarter, a consistent downward trend was evident, driven by ample inventories meeting subdued demand from the downstream textile industry in July. Furthermore, the impact of inflation led to a reduction in consumer spending, compelling manufacturers in the region to lower their profit margins, thereby supporting the bearish trend. Subsequently, the demand for PSF remained generally weak, reflecting the disappointing performance of the downstream textile industry in August. Consumer purchasing activities stayed subdued amid prevailing recessionary conditions in Europe. Simultaneously, the presence of substantial inventories persisted as demand failed to utilize them fully, leaving little room for price increments during this period. The intricate interplay of these factors creates a complex and challenging landscape for the German PSF market, where demand, economic conditions, and inventory levels collectively contribute to the bearish trend observed throughout September.
