Analysis review
Domestic coconut shell activated charcoal manufacturers' prices remained stable this week, with quotations from individual manufacturers falling. The ex-factory price of coconut shell activated charcoal for water purification in East China was between 9,500 and 13,000 RMB/ton. The high price of coconut shell activated charcoal limits the enthusiasm of downstream transactions, and the market is not moving well. We should focus on the market transaction situation.
Prices for wood and bamboo activated charcoal fluctuate minimally. Physically processed wood and bamboo charcoal are supported by cost, and factory quotes are generally stable. On the supply side, declining production in Southeast Asia's main coconut-producing regions has led to rising costs for domestic companies with a high reliance on imports, reducing the supply of coconut shell raw materials. This, in turn, has led to increased demand for coconut shell activated charcoal in sectors such as new energy batteries and gold extraction, supporting high prices.
Market outlook
The high price of domestic coconut shell activated charcoal market limits transactions, and it is expected that the price of activated charcoal may fluctuate in the short term.
