A Thailand-based producer has announced fresh offers for PET bottle-grade resin at USD 770–790 per metric ton, according to market information. The material will ship in October 2025 from the company’s China plant on an FOB basis.
A source in China said the new offer reflects steady supply conditions and aims to capture buying interest ahead of the year’s final quarter, when beverage and packaging demand often shows seasonal strength. Traders noted that the pricing falls within the current global range, giving Chinese and regional buyers a benchmark as they plan October procurement.
Market participants are weighing these offers against domestic Chinese production costs and freight considerations, with some expecting negotiations to hinge on crude oil trends and regional demand recovery. While inventories remain comfortable, buyers are monitoring feedstock paraxylene and PTA movements that could influence PET resin margins.
Observers added that competitive offers from other Asian producers may temper immediate acceptance of the Thai supplier’s price, but the early announcement provides clarity for downstream users mapping their fourth-quarter supply strategies.
