Polylactic Acid Price Trend- Q4 2023


The polylactic acid (PLA) market was significantly influenced by various factors, driving supply and demand dynamics. In North America, Q4 2023 witnessed a notable impact on pricing due to several key elements. Firstly, a subdued market sentiment prevailed, primarily stemmed from weakened demand across downstream industries, significantly in packaging. This decline in demand had led to a surplus in inventory, exerted downward pressure on prices throughout the year. Secondly, the region experienced a moderate to high supply of PLA, with abundant inventories available in the market. Import levels from Asian countries, particularly Thailand and China, remained weak, further contributed to the surplus availability of the product. Lastly, a reported plant shutdown within North America has also influenced the market, although specific details are not available.

The global polylactic acid market size reached US$ 993.4 Million in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 3530 Million, at a projected CAGR of 14.70% during 2023-2032. Moreover, in the APAC region, there was a notable surplus in PLA supply during Q4 2023, leading to a bearish market situation fueled by decreased overseas orders and freight rates. Despite this, initiatives supporting the ban on plastics and sustainable packaging materials had generated positive sentiments in downstream markets. The market situation in South Korea saw a depreciation, impacted PLA prices. Additionally, key players actions, economic recovery in China, and energy prices had also impacted PLA prices. The region has seen a decline in prices compared to the same quarter last year, although with some stabilization from the previous quarter.

Meanwhile, in Europe, PLA prices experienced a slight improvement in Q4 2023, with the market exhibiting optimistic tendencies supported by moderate supply levels. Despite expectations of decreased freight rates and sufficient domestic inventory potentially led to a price drop, factors like decreased overseas orders and increased upstream prices during the destocking season had introduced upward pressure on prices. Recent events related to water pollution caused by plastic packaging prompted the EU government to consider immediate action to ban food packaging materials, impacted market dynamics. Increased demand in the downstream packaging industry and an improved mindset among investors about sustainable packaging contributed to the upward force on PLA prices.
