Now a local manufacturer quoted POY 75D/72F for 17,050 Yuan/ton by cash remittance. The manufacturers in Taicang tend to decrease the price of FDY products, but the practical rate is not certain yet.
The polyester price tends to be weak in Zhejiang market. The quotations in Xiao-Shao Market mostly keep steady. A local manufacturer in Xiao Shan quoted FDY 15D/96F for 14,600 Yuan/ton by acceptance and micro-web DTY 150D/144F for 16,500 Yuan/ton by acceptance.

Although April’s settlement prices of upstream polyester materials all disclosed highly, the supportive power upon the recent polyester prices in Jiangsu-Zhejiang market is still weak. Because of the increasing of the stock pressure, the leading direct spinning manufacturers all give promotions with cutting the prices, especially for the FDY fine denier products. Therefore, I think leading by the mainstream manufacturers here, the polyester prices may keep decreasing in Jiangsu-Zhejiang market.
