Price trend
According to the monitoring of SunSirs, the domestic price of sodium metabisulfite continued to be weak this week. The average price of industrial-grade sodium metabisulfite at the beginning of the week was 3,200.00 RMB/ton, and the average price at the weekend was 3,100.00 RMB/ton, down 3.12% during the week.
Analysis review
This week, the overall performance of the domestic industrial-grade sodium metabisulfite market was average. In order to stimulate shipments, some companies slightly lowered the ex-factory price of metabisulfite, which drove the domestic market price of sodium metabisulfite to continue to run weakly this week. The price range of industrial grade sodium metabisulfite was 2,900-3,300 RMB/ton, and most prices were concentrated around 3,000 RMB/ton. Enterprise inventory was about 30%, mainly to complete the orders of old customers.
In the first half of July, the domestic price of soda ash fell slightly by 1.03%, the price of sulfur fell sharply by 50.69%, and the price of raw materials fell sharply. The cost will further suppress the domestic sodium metabisulfite market price in the future.
Market outlook
SunSirs’ analysts believe that the cost continues to be weak, the downstream wait-and-see attitude increases, and the domestic sodium metabisulfite market price will continue to operate under overall pressure in the short term.
