What are PP compounds?
Under this price series we report reinforced PP compounds only – speciality grades reinforced with glass fibre or talc.
The reinforcement raises stiffness, impact resistance, and temperature resistance while keeping density low.
The reinforcement raises stiffness, impact resistance, and temperature resistance while keeping density low.
Where are PP compounds used?
Automotive manufacturing (bumpers, interior trim, under-bonnet parts), and technical industrial applications.

Top 5 application markets for PP compounds
pricenxt provides structured price data and analysis views for PP compounds, supporting a consistent basis for planning, procurement, and pricing.
-
BodyBumpers, wings and add-on parts consist of PP compounds, the polyamides, and fibre-reinforced materials – their prices determine the component costs.Learn more
-
Interior trimDoor trim, instrument panels and decorative parts consist largely of PP compounds and ABS – their prices determine the component costs.Learn more
-
Functional partsFunctional parts such as gears and bearings need precise, wear-resistant plastics – POM and the polyamides dominate, and their prices count.Learn more
-
AcousticsAcoustic and insulation components use large volumes of PUR foam – price movements in polyols and isocyanates feed directly into costs.Learn more
-
Housings & coversHousings and covers use ABS, PC, and PC/ABS blends – appearance, impact resistance and material costs depend directly on polymer prices.Learn more

What makes PP compounds distinctive?
PP compounds are tailor-made materials for demanding components. Price series help place developments in automotive and industrial markets in a traceable context.
Material and price logic
Fillers and modifiers tune PP to specific requirements. Automotive and industrial demand shapes price formation.
- Tailor-made: talc-, glass-fibre- or elastomer-reinforced PP grades.
- Trade types: contract prices form the price basis for planning and calculation.
- Automotive relevance: important for bumpers, interior, and under-bonnet parts.
Market relevance
PP compound prices are relevant to companies that purchase materials for automotive and industrial applications, cost them or have to account for them in price negotiations.
- Procurement: teams can factor price movements into their purchasing plans at an early stage.
- Pricing: price series support structured discussions on material costs and price adjustment mechanisms.
- Controlling: price histories help document cost assumptions in a traceable way.
