Viscose yarn price falls in China while stable in India and Pakistan

In China, mainstream prices of 40s compact siro-spun yarn in Jiangsu were down US cents 4 a kg in the third week of November while 30s spun viscose in Xiaoshan were steady.

Spun viscose yarn prices softened in the third week of November in China with those for regular specs like rotor-spun, ring-spun, vortex-spun and siro-spun yarn down slightly, except for some core-spun yarn whose prices remained firm amid high profits.

In Pakistan, steady VSF prices were supporting viscose yarn prices while demand from China was reportedly lower, partly due to a seasonal decline of textile production in this part of the year.

In India, viscose yarn prices rolled over on firm VSF markets while US$ term prices gained a bit. Export prices were down in line with a drop of demand as inventories were kept at minimum levels.

30s viscose spun yarn prices were up US cent 1 a kg in Indore market.
