Europe Ethylene Acrylic Acid Copolymer Price
The European market during Q4 was marked by volatility, with an initial price increase in October accompanied by a decline. Early gains were due to a slight rise in feedstock ethylene as well as acrylic acid costs, but these were offset by sustained cost pressures and low demand from the packaging sector, impacting profitability. As the quarter progressed, decrease in latest orders and a negative market outlook led to lower EAA prices. Compounding these challenges were supply problems in the Red Sea by mid-December, further complicating the European market's recovery efforts and highlighting ongoing demand and supply issues.

North America Ethylene Acrylic Acid Copolymer Price
The market for ethylene acrylic acid copolymer underwent volatility during Q4 2023 in North America. Early on, prices fell due to decreased feedstock rates for ethylene and acrylic acid and weakened demand in the packaging industry. As the quarter advanced, procurement activities picked up, spurred by the approaching holiday season, which boosted demand both domestically and internationally. Rising ethylene rates increased production costs, compounded by supply chain disruptions at the Panama Canal on account of the drought. In spite of these initial hurdles, the EAA market showed resilience by the quarter's end, influenced by a combination of fluctuating feedstock prices, changes in demand, and logistical challenges.
