As of mid-Jan 2025 in South Korea, the Polyolefin Elastomer (POE) Market showed signs of weakness due to fewer users' orders than expected. Demand for POE from end users' sectors kept POE orders for both sectors relatively constant, though at lower-than-normal levels. The number of export shipments also slowed as vehicle sales have decreased and industrial activity has slowed. There were still enough orders of POE to satisfy the normal demand. However, the buyer sentiment was weak, but the disciplined strategies of suppliers prevented supply disruptions.
