Monofilament 30D prices dipped US cents 21 a kg while nylon staple fiber 1.5D prices fell US cents 36 a kg during the week.
Nylon filament yarn prices drifted lower in line with falling caprolactum and nylon chip costs. The market also lacked strength and edged down on relieved cost pressure. Demand remained modest as downstream converters maintained stable production. However, some buyers were cautious to follow-up on the back of ample stock built earlier and flat raw materials.
Warp?knitting, weaving and AJ covering sectors operated at 70?90% while, circular?knitting mills and lacing mills ran at 50?70% capacities. Fishing?net yarn, monofilament, staple fiber and cord fabric makers stood on the sidelines amid cautious sentiment.
