Sources reported that supply for PE in the country is apparently more comfortable than PP, especially for LLDPE film. This is one of the factors that cap the PE market’s ability to advance further despite the firming regional market. 

“Buyers remain very cautious. Traders with heavy stock on hand are offering at $10/ton below the producer’s price list. As a result, customers do not have the urge to speed up replenishment,” a market source said.
