Caustic soda China

The weekly caustic soda report in China focuses on 32% liquid caustic soda and 99% solid caustic soda. It provides price assessments for the Chinese caustic soda market.

Coverage of the export market is also included with free on board (FOB) export prices assessed. These price ranges can move week by week as regional market conditions dictate.

Since caustic soda is produced with chlorine, information on the pricing and market for chlorine is contained in the report. Details on plant capacities, plant operating rates and industrial demand is also included.

ICIS talks regularly with producers, traders and buyers. Many subscribers find our report useful and they can rely on the information contained within it to establish their own pricing terms.
