Europe Mixed Xylene Price

Q2 2024:

In Q2 2024, the market in Europe saw a varied performance, with prices initially rising due to limited supply. However, the overall market sentiment was impacted by broader economic challenges, leading to continued pressure on demand from end users. In June, prices decreased because of declining crude oil costs and reduced raw material expenses, and individual spending power. With subdued demand and limited overseas inquiries, the market saw prices trending downward, reflecting the cautious approach of buyers amid economic headwinds and weak end-user demand.

Q1 2024:

In Q1 2024, the market in Europe faced rising prices due to supply constraints. Despite this, the demand for xylene derivatives was sluggish amid economic difficulties. Geopolitical complications and below-zero temperatures in the US pushed up energy expenses, driving feedstock costs higher. Reduced output and production disruptions tightened supply in the market, maintaining price hikes. Although end-users showed little interest, price increases were driven by restricted material accessibility. Furthermore, rising shipping and energy expenses contributed to the increasing trend.

This analysis can be extended to include detailed mixed xylene price information for a comprehensive list of countries.

Europe Germany, France, United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, Russia, Turkey, Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, Belgium, Austria, Ireland, Switzerland, Norway, Denmark, Romania, Finland, Czech Republic, Portugal, and Greece, among other European countries.


North America Mixed Xylene Price

Q2 2024:

In Q2 2024, prices in the USA faced a downward trend due to weak demand and fluctuations in crude oil prices. Ample inventories surpassed end user requirements despite reduced manufacturing rates caused by market volatility. The steady decline in the prices of naphtha, influenced by falling crude oil costs, further led to reduced production expenses. As a result, market players lowered prices to increase sales while demand from end user industries remained inactive, defying typical seasonal patterns. Additionally, limited export opportunities and muted spot transactions pressured traders to lower prices further to maintain competitiveness in the market.

Q1 2024:

In Q1 2024, there was a consistent upward trend in the North American region on account of rising prices of crude oil and continued production challenges. Costs of feedstock naphtha also increased, pushing up manufacturing expenses for mixed xylene. Additionally, increased oil costs and production delays at manufacturing facilities in winter resulted in decreased material supply, causing prices to rise even more. Shipping complications in areas like the Red Sea, combined with winter weather and transit issues in the Panama Canal, also pushed shipping expenses higher. Demand from end user sectors remained steady, but high interest rates and inflation dampened consumer purchasing power.

Asia Pacific Mixed Xylene Price

Q2 2024:

In Q2 2024, the market in the Asia Pacific region fluctuated throughout the quarter. In the beginning of the quarter, prices in the region went up because of higher demand from end users and a sudden increase in overseas inquiries. Nevertheless, certain segments saw a consistent level of domestic requirement, and production costs were lowered as a result of decreased naphtha prices. At the conclusion of the quarter, costs dropped, attributed to low price support from raw materials and moderate demand from major industries, causing pressure on the market. Low domestic price levels could not be maintained because of low operating rates causing supply tightness.

Q1 2024:

The market in the Asia Pacific region experienced notable growth during Q1 2024. Several factors contributed to higher production costs, including increased naphtha prices and shipping disturbances caused by the shipping crisis in the Red Sea and drone attacks on Russian refineries. Geopolitical complications raised oil prices, adding to the pressure on the production sector. Even though there was a moderate need for m-xylene and p-xylene, Chinese manufacturing slowdown before the holiday season restricted the number of new orders. These issues, along with a decline in sales by major producers and reduced manufacturing activity, resulted in low material availability, as bad weather and delays in shipping continued to worsen the supply shortages.
