What is polycarbonate regranulate?
Polycarbonate regranulate (rPC) and regranulate from PC/ABS blends (rPC/ABS blends) are secondary materials made from polycarbonate and from PC/ABS blends, predominantly from post-industrial sources.
They mainly replace virgin material in housing, sheet, and glazing applications with moderate requirements.
For procurement, pricing and commercial teams these prices are relevant because they determine the cost base of sustainable polycarbonate applications.

Where is polycarbonate regranulate used?
rPC and rPC/ABS blends are used for housings, sheets, covers, and transparent components, frequently blended with virgin material.
Both are closely tied to E&E, construction, and automotive.

What makes polycarbonate regranulate distinctive?
Polycarbonate regranulate brings circular content into technical and transparent parts. Price series help place movements against virgin material in context.
Material and price logic
rPC depends on collection sources, reprocessing, and virgin material prices. Quality and transparency requirements shape price formation.
- Secondary raw material: reprocessed PC recyclate for housings and sheets.
- Trade types: contract prices form the price basis for planning and calculation.
- Circularity relevance: important for recycled content in E&E and construction.
Market relevance
Prices for polycarbonate regranulate are relevant to companies that purchase, cost or have to account for recyclate-based and circular PC materials 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.
