Polymer price data for building construction
In building construction, plastics are used across the building envelope and the interior fit-out – price movements in insulation, profiles and waterproofing therefore feed directly into construction costs and calculation.

Why polymer prices matter for building construction:
Construction plastics are installed in large volumes; even moderate price movements in insulation and profiles have a noticeable effect on material costs and quotation reliability.
High material cost share: in insulation, window profiles, and waterproofing the polymer price determines a large part of the material costs.
Several relevant plastics: building construction draws on a broad spectrum – from PVC and PE through EPS and PUR to other construction plastics whose prices develop in different directions.
Predictable procurement: transparent price trends make tenders, budgets and negotiations easier where project timelines are long.
