Understanding EVA prices
Raw materials and production
Ethylene-vinyl acetate is a copolymer whose properties depend partly on vinyl-acetate content. It can provide flexibility and compatibility for different products. Commercial resin grades also differ in flow behaviour and processing characteristics.
Applications and consumption
Footwear foams, films, adhesives and selected photovoltaic encapsulation products use EVA. These applications require different technical grades. Solar-related demand does not imply that every EVA resin quotation describes material certified for a photovoltaic application.
What affects EVA prices?
Ethylene and vinyl-acetate costs, plant output, footwear orders and selected energy-related demand influence prices. Grade availability and processing requirements can create market differences. Vinyl-acetate content and qualification requirements should be checked alongside the quoted unit and delivery terms.
How to read EVA price today
This page follows EVA in China. The price type is Spot assessment, with values expressed in CNY/t. Compare quotations only after matching the product specification, unit, market and publication period. Changes in the chart describe the recorded series; they do not measure every transaction in the wider market. A local purchase may include freight, processing, taxes or dealer margins. Differences in quality or delivery conditions can therefore produce a different final cost even when the reference price is unchanged.
The latest dated observation is the reference available on this page. Trading holidays or publication delays can leave the displayed date earlier than today; this is not a live tick feed.
