At present, in the context of poor performance of carbide market in Wuhai, the average price has fallen again. Local calcium carbide manufacturers have actively engaged in sales. Due to the abundant supply in the market and limited demand from downstream PVC enterprises, carbide manufacturers usually choose to cut prices to promote sales. In addition, as the carbide cost has become loosened as a result of a decline in the raw material semi-coke market, the industry players are more likely to make a compromise in the price. At this stage, the mainstream ex-factory price of first-class calcium carbide products is around 3100 yuan/ton in the region.
