Polymer price data for textiles & clothing

Textiles and clothing are increasingly based on synthetic fibres and coatings. The prices of the underlying polymers feed straight into fibre and material costs.

pricenxt in the textiles & clothing sector

With pricenxt Analytics, teams capture price developments faster, compare price series, and build up their own structured market monitoring.

Why polymer prices matter for textiles & clothing:

Synthetic textiles use large volumes of polymer raw materials; price movements in PET, PA and PUR feed through into fibre and coating costs.

  • Share of synthetic material: man-made fibres determine a large part of material costs in textiles and clothing.

  • Several relevant polymers: PET, PA, PP and PUR are used depending on the fibre and the finishing – their prices develop differently.

  • Predictable procurement: transparent price developments make calculation and collection planning easier.
