Why are material price data important for plastics converters?

Raw material prices determine a substantial share of production costs. Those who spot price developments early can steer procurement, costing, customer prices, and margins more reliably.
  • Capture price movements faster

    Interactive charts show price developments, deltas and price levels for relevant plastics, so procurement and costing can respond faster.
  • Compare products and price series

    Material price series and time periods can be compared in a shared analysis view – helpful for quotations, negotiations, and margin assessment.
  • Bundle relevant raw materials on boards

    Personal boards bundle top raw materials, products and price cards for regular procurement and management reviews.
  • Use price cards for KPIs and trends

    KPI, chart, sparkline and delta cards condense price movements for a quick overview in day-to-day operations.
  • Analyse time periods and scenarios

    Configurable time periods, trend lines and forecast views support the assessment of possible cost developments, where available.
  • Save, export, and share analyses

    Charts and analyses can be saved, exported or used via share link in coordination between procurement, sales, and controlling.

pricenxt for plastics converters

The pricenxt Analytics for raw material prices, with which teams in plastics processing can capture price developments faster, compare price series and build their own market monitoring in a structured way.

Challenges in plastics processing

When polymer prices fluctuate, costing, procurement and sales come under pressure at the same time. pricenxt creates a structured analytical basis for these decisions.

  • Volatile material prices strain costing
    Fluctuating plastics prices make it hard to produce quotations with confidence and plan margins reliably.
  • Cost risks arise faster than price lists can react
    Purchase prices change at short notice, while customer prices, framework agreements and budgets are often fixed for longer.
  • Price discussions need solid arguments
    Transparent price developments help to justify price changes clearly to customers, suppliers, and internal decision-makers.
