In the second week of June 2025, the Pyridine market in the U.S. remained notably stable—a reflection of balanced supply-demand fundamentals and the absence of major disruptions. Consistent output, aided by subdued ammonia feedstock costs, supported firm supply, and enhanced producer margins. While pharmaceutical demand remained strong—bolstered by a regulatory push to streamline domestic drug manufacturing—agrochemical consumption saw a slight slowdown due to regulatory scrutiny, though not enough to significantly impact overall demand. Inventory levels were adequate, and no logistical or operational challenges were reported.

Selenis has effectively manufactured recycled PET chips using terephthalic acid sourced from Circ®, a textile-to-textile recycler based in Virginia. The chip production took place through a series of batches at Selenis' pilot plant in San-Giorgio, Italy. By utilizing inputs recovered from polycotton textile waste, Selenis has created high-quality PET chip, which has been further processed into DTY yarn. This yarn will play a crucial role in product development as Circ prepares for additional capsule launches. Selenis is leveraging the success of this initial collaboration phase and is committed to advancing towards an offtake partnership to support Circ's inaugural industrial facility.
Eduardo Santos, Head of Corporate Strategy at Selenis, remarked that the monomer synthesis showed a performance comparable to virgin terephthalic acid. He expressed optimism about the consistent quality of Circ's monomer output and anticipated future commercial success. Santos pointed out that the Circ partnership complements Selenis's existing mission and goals for a more sustainable textile industry. He further stated their anticipation of expanding upon this collaboration and providing support for Circ's forthcoming commercial production trials.
