Polymer price data for agriculture & garden

Applications in agriculture and garden require large volumes of plastic – from greenhouse films through irrigation systems to planters and propagation pots. Changes in polymer prices therefore feed directly into production costs and calculations.

Why polymer prices matter for agriculture & garden:

The agriculture and garden sector converts large volumes of plastics, which are often used in low wall thicknesses. Because of the large areas and high unit numbers involved, even small price changes in the polymers used add up to noticeable cost effects.

  • High volume usage: films, hoses, pipes and moulded parts are used in large quantities – the material price is a substantial part of production costs.

  • Several relevant plastics: PE, PP and PVC are used depending on the application and develop differently in price.

  • Seasonal procurement: transparent price data help to plan purchases reliably ahead of seasonal peaks.

Which plastics are relevant for agriculture & garden?

In agriculture and garden, polyethylene (PE) is the most important plastic, for example for agricultural films and for irrigation pipes and hoses. PVC is used above all for pipe systems, PP among other things for plant pots, propagation trays, and transport packaging. PS is used in propagation systems, while EVA is found in coextruded greenhouse films, among others.

  • Polyethylene

    LDPE film, LLDPE C4 film, HDPE pipe PE80, HDPE pipe PE100
  • Polypropylene

    PPH IM
  • PVC

    PVC suspension
  • EVA

    EVA (VA up to 18%)
