What moves your costs

Chain reaction from oil to pellets

Moves in crude and naphtha reach monomers and polymers with a delay. Knowing the upstream helps you negotiate.

Energy as a cost block

Gas is both feedstock and energy carrier, on top come power and CO₂ costs.

Contract and spot markets

Monthly contracts, spot prices and indices diverge; comparing them shapes the purchasing strategy.

How the package helps

Watch the upstream

Naphtha, ethylene, propylene and butadiene next to PE, PP and ABS in one comparison chart.

Maintain price formulas

Monomer and polymer prices as the basis for customer and supplier formulas, with Pro also as Excel export.

Manage energy costs

Gas, power and CO₂ futures for procurement and budgeting.
