China Mono Ethylene Glycol Prices Movement 2026
Mono Ethylene Glycol prices in China stood at USD 553/MT in June 2026, the end of Q2. Prices showed mild downward movement following fluctuating operating rates in downstream polyester units. Demand conditions stayed uneven as textile sector procurement varied through the quarter. Import inflows added further pressure on domestic pricing levels, which softened overall sentiment among suppliers.
Germany Mono Ethylene Glycol Prices Movement 2026
Germany recorded Mono Ethylene Glycol prices of USD 665/MT in June 2026, the highest among the five countries covered for Q2. Steady demand from the automotive antifreeze and packaging resin sectors drove prices higher. Moderately tight supply, caused by logistical constraints and reduced import availability from external suppliers, added further support. Stable industrial production across manufacturing hubs kept downstream procurement consistent.
Saudi Arabia Mono Ethylene Glycol Prices Movement 2026
In June 2026, Saudi Arabia’s Mono Ethylene Glycol price was USD 539/MT, closing Q2 2026. Stable production output and adequate domestic supply led to a slight price decline. Export flows stayed steady but met moderate competition from alternative regional suppliers. Downstream demand from petrochemical derivatives remained stable, though not strong enough to lift price levels significantly.
Brazil Mono Ethylene Glycol Prices Movement 2026
Brazil’s Mono Ethylene Glycol prices reached USD 555/MT in June, the final month of Q2 2026. Import dependency shaped pricing, as international freight conditions influenced landed costs. Steady demand from polyester fiber and industrial chemical sectors supported moderate upward movement. Consistent domestic consumption, particularly from textile and packaging applications, kept the overall market active throughout the quarter.
