Fluctuations in international oil prices have led to an increase in the cost of bale net wrap and baler twine

2026-03-12 14:10

Recent dramatic changes in the international situation, with escalating tensions between the United States, Israel, and Iran, have directly triggered severe volatility in the international crude oil market. As a result, the price of plastic granules, the core raw material for bale net and baler twine, has surged.


This round of price increases is driven by a dual logic:


First: Geopolitical factors drive up costs. The situation in the Middle East is affecting global energy markets. Market concerns about supply disruptions have caused crude oil risk premiums to rise continuously. As the source of petrochemical raw materials, oil price fluctuations have directly impacted the production costs of bale net and baler twine.


Second: Profit-seeking behavior of raw material distributors amplifies price increases. In addition to the fixed cost increases, some raw material distributors have taken advantage of market panic and supply-demand gaps to profit through hoarding and controlling supply, further pushing up actual transaction prices in the raw material market. This "cumulative effect" has made the cost pressure on baling products far exceed normal fluctuations.


In the short term, geopolitical conflicts show no signs of easing, and uncertainties remain regarding raw material supply. The cost of raw materials for bale net/baler twine is expected to remain high for some time, increasing market volatility.


Our factory, thanks to its market foresight and prudent business strategy, has already stockpiled sufficient raw material inventory. Current Bale net wrap and Baler Twine production is unaffected, raw materials are plentiful, and production lines are operating at full capacity to ensure uninterrupted supply.


SEKEYTE product prices remain stable. In the short term, we can absorb cost pressures and maintain existing product prices, resolutely ensuring that our customers do not bear the burden of sudden market fluctuations.
