European market players raised the Aniline prices in August 2025. This was driven by the tight supply conditions as production was hampered due to weak supplies of feedstock, Nitric Acid. On the demand side, Aniline consumption remained firm from MDI industries to produce end-use Polyurethane materials for the automotive sector. The automotive industry provided resilience through rising new car registrations and accelerating adoption of battery-electric vehicles. However, price decline is expected towards the end of Q3 with improved manufacturing and supply activities in the region post summer holidays.
