There have been reports that the producer is currently putting more attention on the domestic Malaysian market given the fact that demand here is improving following the COVID-19 lockdown. The extended shutdown at PrefChem is giving the producer a prominent position in this market.
“However, it is very difficult for Indonesian buyers to accept such large increases, especially for homo-PP cargoes because of the competitive local prices and soft end product businesses,” a market source explained.
