PVC

The PVC market has mostly recovered from the hurricane season. The typical slowing demand during the winter months and stabilized pricing has led PVC manufacturers to begin discounting again, which should continue in the coming months prior to spring. Availability is good and likely to continue during the next few months.

HDPE

The HDPE resin market has found footing with the hurricane season coming to a close. Basically, all resin producers are back on line, and the supply chain has been rendered whole. Pipe prices are believed to remain stable through the month and lead times have normalized.

The American Supply Association (ASA) and its Industrial Piping Division (IPD) is the national organization serving wholesaler-distributors and their suppliers in the industrial and mechanical pipe-valve-fitting industry.  As a powerful alliance of channel partners, we provide a forum for your upstream trading partners to exchange critical information and address key issues.
