Polyester Market Reports

Our weekly Polyester Fiber Reports cover the polyester staple fibers (PSF) and polyester filament yarns (PFY) in China, India, and Pakistan.  The weekly Polyester Chain Reports cover the vertical production stages, from crude oil to fibers, with a focus on paraxylene, PTA, and MEG.  Monthly comparison reports offer a broad view of PSF vs. Cotton, and PSF vs. polyester spun yarns in China, India, and Pakistan. Recycled polyester reports are released every quarter. 

Cotton & Polyester Price Comparison (Monthly)
