Market Talks: An outlook for the polymers market in Latin America in 2023

Polymers market, which includes some plastics resins, more specifically polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), has been growing across the continent for decades. However, domestic production in each of the major Latin American markets is not enough to meet the regional demand for PE and PP, and there is a very dynamic import market to capture part of this demand.

Join Camila Dias, Argus Brazil Country Manager, and Fred Fernandes, Latin America Polymers Senior Reporter, as they talk about the perspectives for the polymers markets in the region in 2023.
