India's polyester-cotton and recycled polyester prices fell on subdued demand and falling crude oil costs. The monsoon disrupted trade in Ludhiana, while Surat saw stable yarn prices with cautious buyers. The market expects further weakening as summer ends and raw material costs decline.

In China, the average Polyester (DTY) price was ~USD 1,420/MT in June. Chinese producers faced weak textile and weaving demand, elevated filament inventories and cautious purchasing, forcing suppliers to reduce offers despite production cuts. Softer PTA costs further reduced production-cost support, while a temporary June restocking wave and crude-related concerns produced only a short-lived recovery. The USA recorded an average DTY price of ~USD 1,617/MT during June. U.S. polyester pricing remained firmer as manufacturing and feedstock costs supported producer offers despite moderate textile demand. The official polyester manufactured-fibre producer index increased about 2.8% from April to May before stabilizing in June, confirming mid-quarter cost pressure. In Germany, Polyester (DTY) averaged ~USD 1,616/MT in June. European values remained supported by energy, freight and imported feedstock costs, while cautious textile demand restricted further gains.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, polyester (DTY) prices are expected to remain broadly stable to slightly soft as adequate supply and restrained textile demand offset potential crude and PTA volatility.

In the first quarter of 2026, the average Polyester (DTY) price in China was approximately 9.10 RMB/kg, which was around 8.22 RMB/kg in January, 8.53 RMB/kg in February, and 10.56 RMB/kg in March. Compared with the previous quarter, Polyester DTY prices in China increased by approximately ~12.74% during Q1’26, while prices increased by approximately ~28.46% between January and March. Early-quarter market conditions were influenced by reduced operating rates and production cuts that tightened supply availability, although Lunar New Year holidays kept downstream trading activity relatively weak. By February, lower inventories and a gradual recovery in textile mill operations supported firmer sentiment. In March, escalating crude-linked feedstock costs, limited new production capacity, and supply-side tightening significantly lifted market momentum. Downstream demand from garments, home textiles, and industrial fabrics improved gradually but remained highly price-sensitive, restricting aggressive restocking activity.
