Price Trends

Procurement Resource presents the detailed price trends of over 500 products, that are frequently updated. The price trends cover the global and regional historical, latest, and forecast prices of the product. The comprehensive price trends further assess the various factors influencing the prices of the product, looking in-depth into the upstream and downstream markets, government regulations, import and export duties, and regional scenarios. The reports also evaluate the impact of capacity expansions, plant turnarounds, and mergers, acquisitions, and investments of the major producers on the prices of the commodities.

The company has recently updated the price trends of acetic acid. The price data is tied to a user-friendly graphing tool, which provides a wide range of functions. These functionalities of the tool include configuration of prices over the historical and forecast period for about 10 years, product movement across countries, customisation of currencies and units, and extraction of price data.


Acetic acid witnessed a spike in prices in Q1 2021, as documented by Procurement Resource,


due to the tight product supply caused by factory shutdowns and plant outages, especially in China and the US Gulf. The supply of Saudi-origin cargoes to India was significantly reduced, as allocations were prioritised for long-term consumers in Europe. China witnessed various shutdowns and plant outages in Shanghai Huayi Chemicals, Henan Shunda, Hualu Hengsheng, INEOS Petronas Acetyls, and Celanese plants. The winter storm in the US Gulf in February 2021 led to a decline in supply, both with the United States and Europe, which is dependent on imports of the product.

The price trends provided by Procurement Resource take into account such extenuating circumstances while estimating the price trends, along with keeping abreast with the anticipated changes in the regulatory and technological landscapes that might influence the market.



Production Cost

The production cost reports by Procurement Resource looks in-depth into the costs involved in the production of commodities within diverse industries, ranging from agriculture to healthcare to packaging. The 300+ production cost reports provide insights about the key processes involved, detailed analysis about capital investments, operating cost analysis for the products, and the economics of different regions, along with plant capacities. The comprehensive reports analyse the production cost of the material, assessing the raw material costs and co-product credit, equipment costs, land and site costs, labour wages, maintenance costs, financing charges, and the depreciation cost. They further assess the feedstock movement, supply disruptions, raw material price variations, and import and export barriers, along with an overall impact of these factors on the final pricing of the product.

The report also assesses the latest developments within the relevant industries that might influence the costs of production, looking into capacity expansions, plant turnarounds, and mergers, acquisitions, and investments.

Procurement Resource has released a new production cost report on urea, providing a detailed insight into the manufacturing process of urea via Bosch-Meiser urea process and via phosgene, along with the details of the flow of raw materials, capital investments, cost of operations, as well as the economics. The report analyses the latest developments in the industry and among the key players that might influence the production processes of the product. For instance, in January 2021, Urea production in China’s Hebei province faced disruptions amidst logistical issues relating to feedstock supply and urea distribution as renewed lockdown measures were announced to curb the spread of the coronavirus. Such developments might influence the production cost for players operating in the area.
