In the third quarter of 2025, the LLDPE price trend has mostly moved downward across major global markets. LLDPE, widely used in packaging films, flexible packaging, agricultural films, and consumer goods, is closely connected to everyday industries. When demand slows in these sectors, LLDPE Prices usually respond quickly. That is exactly what happened during Q3 2025.

Across Europe, North America, Latin America, and parts of the Middle East, prices declined mainly because demand from packaging and consumer goods industries was weaker than expected. Although supply remained stable in most regions, buyers were cautious. Many companies chose to purchase only what they needed for the short term rather than building inventories. This careful buying pattern kept the market under pressure.

At the same time, the broader global economy played an important role. Slower industrial activity, cautious consumer spending, and uncertainty in international trade affected overall demand. Even though production plants continued operating smoothly and feedstock costs like ethylene were stable or slightly lower, the lack of strong demand prevented prices from holding steady.

Europe: Continued Downward Movement

In countries like Belgium, France, Germany, and Italy, the LLDPE price trend clearly showed consistent declines throughout the quarter.

In Belgium, prices dropped by around 4.6% during Q3. The packaging sector, which is a major consumer of film-grade LLDPE, experienced lower activity. This reduced procurement from converters and manufacturers. By September 2025, prices slipped further by about 1.3% as inventories remained comfortable and export opportunities were limited.

France saw a slightly stronger drop of nearly 4.9% during the quarter. Weak demand from packaging and agricultural film applications contributed to the decline. Lower crude oil and ethylene costs also reduced production expenses, allowing suppliers to adjust offers downward. Buyers remained cautious, which kept pressure on LLDPE Prices.

Germany followed a similar pattern, with a decline of around 4.7%. Film packaging converters reduced operating rates, and downstream demand from food and beverage packaging softened. In September, prices decreased again as buyers avoided stocking up, expecting prices to remain stable or fall further.

Italy experienced a 4.6% drop in Q3. The situation was much like the rest of Europe steady supply but limited demand. Packaging and even automotive-related applications showed slower activity. Sellers had to slightly reduce offers to maintain sales in a market where availability was high and export demand was limited.

Overall, Europe reflected a market struggling with low industrial momentum and cautious consumer sentiment. Even though production costs were manageable, weak buying interest shaped the LLDPE price trend.

North America: Stronger Declines in September

In North America, both the United States and Canada saw declining prices.
