Last week (July 19-24), the market trends for mainstream domestic polyamide filament varieties (polyamide DTY, POY, and FDY) were highly synchronized. Prices for products of all specifications remained stable during the first half of the week (July 19-21) but saw a uniform increase on July 22, after which they held steady through July 24. Consequently, all categories recorded a definite weekly price rise, characterized by a pattern of initial stability followed by an increase and subsequent stabilization; cost-push factors were the primary driver behind this round of price hikes.
Price Details to the Three Major Types of Filament Yarn
A comparative analysis reveals that polyamide POY saw the largest price increase, followed by DTY, while the rise in FDY prices was relatively moderate. All product categories underwent a one-time price adjustment on July 22, with quotes remaining stable over the subsequent three trading days; the market implementation of these adjustments proceeded smoothly, resulting in a high degree of consistency in spot market quotations.
Upstream PA6 and caprolactam cost landscape: Rising raw material prices provided strong cost support
The recent wave of price hikes to polyamide filament stems from rising production costs to upstream caprolactam and polyamide chips (PA6).
1. Caprolactam: Recent evaporative environment with an upward bias in upstream raw materials—specifically crude oil and pure benzene—has driven up production costs to caprolactam vegetation, causing domestic spot prices to rise over the week. As a direct feedstock to polyamide chips, the cost increase to caprolactam has been passed downstream, intensifying production cost pressures to PA6 polymerization companies.
2. polyamide PA6 Chips: Driven by the rising cost of caprolactam, market prices to spinning-grade PA6 chips have increased, and manufacturers have raised their ex-factory quotes. Consequently, polyamide filament producers have faced an involuntary rise in raw material procurement costs, squeezing their production margins. Compelled by these rising costs and a prevailing sector-wide direction of price adjustments, filament manufacturers raised ex-factory prices across all product categories on July 22, thereby passing upstream cost pressures further down the supply chain.
Overall, costs across the polyamide sector chain have risen from the top down this week. With no significant pullback in upstream raw material prices providing a solid floor to filament prices, manufacturers are generally maintaining a firm stance on pricing.
