Supported by raw materials, the price of activated carbon has risen

At the beginning of the month, the price of activated carbon was 12466 yuan/ton, and at the end of the month, the price of activated carbon was 12533/ton, with a price increase of 0.53%.
Most domestic manufacturers of activated carbon have seen price increases this week. The ex factory price of activated carbon for coconut shell water purification in East China is between 9000-13000 yuan/ton, which is relatively firm. Due to the strong prices of upstream coconut shell carbonization materials and rising import costs, there is limited room for price reduction, and the overall stability is relatively strong.
On the demand side: Coconut shell charcoal has relatively stable demand in the gold extraction and new energy sectors, supporting the firm market prices. In the short term, the market is mainly characterized by strong fluctuations. The price of upstream coconut shell carbonization materials remains strong, coupled with tight raw material supply and rising logistics costs in Southeast Asian major producing countries (Indonesia, Philippines), forming bottom support for finished product prices.
Prediction: The trend of tight upstream raw material supply is difficult to change in the short term, and it is expected that the price of activated carbon will mainly fluctuate strongly in the short term.
