In April, the import of ethylene glycol (MEG) in China dropped by 55078 tons, or about 8%, to 633737 tons, according to the data released by China Customs.

83566 tons of ethylene glycol were exported to China, but 69547 tons were sold in April.

Taiwan's exports to the mainland also declined, down 26523 tons, reaching 112794 tons in April.


The decline in imports was mainly attributable to the high ethylene glycol stock in the eastern ports of China.

Market participants estimate that about 500 thousand tons of ethylene glycol are stored in professional tanks in the eastern ports.

In the first four months of this year, China imported 2325758 tons of ethylene glycol, up 16.5% from 1996151 tons last year, reflecting strong consumer confidence at the beginning of this year.


As a result of excessive supply, the price of ethylene glycol has declined steadily since April 12th.


The buyers of ethylene glycol also track the price of PTA, and the price of PTA fluctuates in the futures market.


The downstream polyester production unit also reported that the production and marketing rate dropped to 50-60%, due to weak demand, and the production units of PET bottle slices were also forced to go to them.
