MOSCOW (MRC)
-- In November, imports of PET granulate to Ukraine rose by 8.5 thousand tonnes
and made about 13 thousand tonnes, the import volumes increased by three
compared with the previous month, according to MRC
DataScope.
One of the fundamental factors of supplies growth is converters’
readiness for a strong demand from bottlers in December, resulted from the
pre-New Year activity in the consumers' market. The fairly low price of
granulate in foreign market also influenced it.

The biggest share in the supply belongs to Chinese producers of PET. In
November, imports from China to Ukraine increased by 3.5 thousand tonnes and
made about 6 thousand tonnes. It is worth noticing that last month there were no
deliveries of PET from the UAE, the second-largest supplier in Ukraine.
At the same time, there were resumed shipments from South Korea. At the
month end, the imports of South Korean material made 3.7 thousand
tonnes.

The supplied volume of Belarusian material also shows a positive growth.
In the first half of the year PET by Mogilevchemvolokno production almost was
not supplied to Ukraine. However, the situation changed in the second half of
the year. Since August 2011, PET imports of the Belarusian plant had shown
monthly growth. In November, the company supplied 1.1 thousand tonnes of
granulate, which was almost twice the volume imported in October.
