In a fresh development in Pakistan’s plastics import market, a source in Pakistan revealed that a Middle Eastern producer has offered its LLDPE rotomolding grade at USD 1,040 per metric ton, for October 2025 shipments on a CFR Karachi basis. The terms include LC at sight or 30 days, with premiums of USD 5/mt for LC 60 days and USD 10/mt for LC 90 days.
This offering arrives at a time when local converters and traders remain alert to international supply options. Rotomolding-grade LLDPE is specialized material used in producing hollow plastic goods: tanks, containers, playground equipment, and similar pieces requiring strength and flexibility. With domestic output often constrained, such imports help meet demand when local availability is tight.
Market participants are now assessing landed costs, duties, and currency risk before making commitments. Given that rotomolding is a niche segment, the competitiveness of this offer may hinge on how regional suppliers respond and whether buyers can lock allocations early.
