Benzaldehyde Price Trend for the First Half of 2023

Asia

The prices of benzaldehyde inclined in the first quarter of 2023 as the food and beverages industry increased its inquiries and the purchasing potential of consumers also inclined. Rising instabilities in the supply-demand equilibrium also supported the rising prices of benzaldehyde.

The trend was carried forward to the second quarter too as the hike in the cost of raw materials led to the rise in production costs that in turn drove the price trend of benzaldehyde into an upward trajectory. However, towards the end months of the second quarter, the prices began to fall as a high number of cheap imports flooded the region along with the slumping cost of raw materials that hampered the growth of the benzaldehyde market.

Europe

In European countries, the inconsistency in demand from the downstream industries in the first quarter of 2023 caused the price trend of benzaldehyde to decline initially but with the passage of the quarter, the market improved its dynamics with rising demand and consistently depleting inventories. In the initial phase of the second quarter also, the rising demand and skyrocketing cost of raw materials supported the positive movement of the benzaldehyde market. However, as seen in the Asia Pacific region, the market of benzaldehyde slumped in the second half of the second quarter as the introduction of cheap imports from international markets and decline in the cost of feedstocks eventually negatively affected the price trend of benzaldehyde.

North America

In North America, the price trend of benzaldehyde slid in the first half of the first quarter but showed signs of recovery in the second half as the production and sales rates started to improve. In the first half of the second quarter too, the prices of benzaldehyde were supported by the cost of raw materials and rising market momentum of downstream industries such as coolants and food and beverage industries. In May and June, the availability of cheap imports and falling cost of raw materials pushed the price trend of benzaldehyde downwards.
