MOSCOW (MRC) -- Overall imports of unmixed polyvinyl chloride (PVC) into Belarus totalled 49,500 tonnes in the first ten months of 2021, up by 11% year on year, according to MRC's DataScope report.
According to the Statistics Committee of the Republic of Belarus, local converters significantly reduced their purchases of suspension in Russia in October under the pressure from seasonal factors. October imports were 3,900 tonnes, whereas this figure was at 5,600 tonnes a month earlier.
Thus, imports of unmixed PVC reached 49,500 tonnes in January-October 2021, compared to 44,600 tonnes a year earlier.
Russian producers with the share of about 93% of the Belarusian market were the key suppliers of resin to Belarus over the stated period. Producers from Germany with the share of over 7% were the second largest suppliers.
