In November, Russian companies imported record volumes of American
resin (7.05) for the first time over the course of the ten recent
years. Nearly half of that volume was Georgia Gulf’s
PVC-S.
In November, resin produced by Japan’s Toyo Vinyl and Mexico’s Mexichem
was available in the Russian market: 220 mt and 302 mt, respectively.
In December, many market players are going to cut down
PVC
purchases by 30-50%, compared to November, because of big purchase
volumes made during October – November when there was lack of material
in the market.
