Chinese lyocell prices turned higher in the second half of August after a weak start, while modal extended its climb and the gap between the two fibers stayed close to its widest on record.
This monthly report tracks lyocell and modal fiber prices in China, India, and Pakistan, alongside lyocell and modal yarn prices in India and Pakistan. All benchmark indicators are published in local currency and US dollars to allow cross-market comparison. The lyocell-viscose spread is calculated to measure the sustainable fiber premium. Yarn-to-fiber spreads are included to assess spinning mill margin trends. Users can also download daily time series covering the past twelve months.
