Market Analysis
This week, the R22 refrigerant market saw a price increase, with prices generally rising by 300-500 yuan/ton. This round of price increases is mainly due to reduced quotas. For example, quotas for Shandong Dongyue are almost exhausted, leading to increased price support from manufacturers. At the same time, the upstream raw material chloroform has seen a significant price increase, while hydrofluoric acid has remained weak but stable, providing some support. Supported by quotas and cost factors, R22 refrigerant prices have rebounded. However, demand remains weak and sluggish, thus lacking a driving force for a significant price increase. A weak and stable market is likely to continue. According to price monitoring, as of November 5, the mainstream prices of R22 refrigerant from major manufacturers ranged from 13,000 to 16,000 yuan/ton, with actual transaction prices slightly lower.
