This week, the supply and demand game in the waste silicone market has intensified, and the price excluding tax is stuck in the range of 4300-4500 yuan/ton. Under the current atmosphere of price increases, silicon product companies are severely reluctant to sell, resulting in a certain gap between the purchase prices of traders and the psychological expectations of silicon product factories.

This price difference has led to a deadlock in market trading, with a gap of 200-300 yuan/ton between the purchase price of traders and the psychological expectations of manufacturers. It is expected that the price of waste silicone will maintain a volatile consolidation pattern in the short term, and the subsequent trend needs to pay attention to changes in upstream and downstream inventory and the transmission effect of new material prices.
From the demand side, as new material prices continue to rise, cracking material companies have successfully taken on some substitute orders with their price advantage. This has to some extent alleviated the supply pressure in the waste silicone market. However, due to the serious reluctance of silicon product companies to sell, the supply-demand imbalance in the market remains prominent.
Looking ahead to the future, with the continuous changes in the market environment and policy adjustments, the waste silicone market may usher in new development opportunities and challenges. Enterprises need to closely monitor market dynamics and policy changes, and flexibly adjust their business strategies to cope with the risks and challenges brought by market changes.
