On 5th September, Polypropylene (PP) prices in USA remained stable, despite rise in feedstock propylene rose. Downstream demand weakness, particularly in packaging, was counterbalanced by strong industrial offtake in motor vehicles, healthcare, and raffia segments. Producers maintained margins through tactical sales distributions, company actions such as Procter & Gamble's price increase and Kraft Heinz's restructuring affected downstream sentiment. Steadily rising plastics prohibitions in nine US states put a leash on packaging demand, though solid domestic production and consistent exports kept the market balanced.
