Will Hiking Prices by 20% Work?
Chemical prices are ascending rapidly as a direct result of rising energy and oil prices and increasing demand for chemicals. Despite these factors petrochemicals capacity from the Middle East and Asia will enter the market at such a scale that the petchem cycle will reach its peak by 2009. Barring unforeseeable events that may severely influence demand, the industry’s margin will be under pressure until demand moves operating rates back up again at the 90% level by 2012. The outlook for prices between now and the end of the year remains uncertain, however.
Speakers in this webinar will identify systems for managing these rapid prices rises and the squeeze on chemical margins. Dow Chemical, among other chemical companies, in recent days has announced plans to raise chemical prices 20% to compensate for multiple and ongoing price hikes in energy, transport and commodities.
