MOSCOW (MRC) -- Export limits from North American and Chinese producers
affected suspension PVC (PVC-S) imports to Russia, according to MRC
DataScope. In April imports fell by 15% compared to March and made 36
KT. In March it was 43 KT.
Supplies of suspension PVC from North America reduced to 15 KT, the
material that comes to the market was contracted in February-early March.
In May a further reduction of resin supplies from USA is expected because of
constant reduction of export quotations and growing export prices (above USD
200/mt within March-April).
Supplies of acetylene PVC from China have considerably reduced. In April
total imports of resin reduced to 14 KT. Stable demand in the domestic market
along with problems with railway vehicles are main reasons for reduction
of imports. Terms of delivery breakdowns reach three weeks. Russian converters
have already felt limited supplies of acetylene resin from China: there is a
small deficit of offer of PVC with Ê=70 in the market.
