MOSCOW (MRC)–Overall imports of unmixed polyvinyl chloride (PVC) into Belarus decreased in the first quarter, year on year, by 6.5% to 8,300 tonnes, according to MRC’s DataScope report.

According to the statistical office of the Republic of Belarus, local converters increased their purchasing of PVC in March under the pressure of seasonal factors.

Russian producers with the share of about 86% of the Belarusian market were the key suppliers of resin to Belarus over the stated period.

Producers from Ukraine and Germany with the share of 8% and 4% were the second and third largest suppliers, respectively.

MRC, a partner of ICIS, produces polymers news and pricing reports from Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
