Use the independent price assessments and market coverage in our price reports to track the regional Nylon market.
Updated to Q3 2020
Nylon supply is expected to be ample in Q3, as there are no planned turnarounds. Supply levels are also likely to stay elevated because of softer demand, specifically from the automotive sector, where sales of new vehicles are lagging last year’s levels by about 24% as the industry attempts to recover from a production halt caused by the coronavirus and fewer buyers because of high unemployment.
Demand for US nylon is expected to be soft, although gradually improving, as economies begin to restart after shutting down to help stop the spread of the coronavirus. The biggest downstream market for nylon is the automobile sector, which is anticipating 2020 volumes to fall by about 20% from 2019 as the industry attempts to recover from a production halt caused by the coronavirus and fewer buyers because of high unemployment.
