Market outlook

Following a sharp surge in March 2026, orthoboric acid prices are currently hovering at elevated levels, undergoing a phase of consolidating those gains. Given the varying procurement costs among market traders, there is significant room to price differentiation in their external offers; consequently, the market is expected to primarily exhibit wide-ranging sideways fluctuation in the short term.
