The polyester filament market still appeared relatively weak with general transactions. Market prices remained stable, but the shipment volume varied among different varieties. In Shengze, Tongxiang, and Taicang, polyester filament quotations were all temporarily stable. For example, a mainstream factory's local POY 75D/72F quotation was 13,450 Yuan/T, while the actual bulk transaction price of semi-dull FDY produced locally could be negotiated, showing a downward trend of 50-100 Yuan/T from the quoted price. Currently, downstream enterprises are still very cautious in procurement, lacking purchasing power support, which makes the polyester filament market unoptimistic. The production and sales situation of spinning mills is uneven. Coupled with the fluctuating adjustment of upstream raw materials and high polyester filament inventory, spinning mills will continue to reduce prices to promote sales in order to seize market share. Most people believe that the overall polyester filament market will continue to show a weak trend, and it cannot be ruled out that there may be a slight downward process in filament prices.
