Global demand for nylon chips remains steady, with new production capacities emerging to meet specialized industrial needs.

As a leading supplier in the polymer industry, Wuxi Xilan New Material Technology Co., Ltd. keeps a close watch on market dynamics to better serve our global clients. Here’s a breakdown of the latest developments in the nylon chips sector:

Recent reports indicate that the nylon filament market has operated steadily in early September 2025, with prices holding firm. Downstream buyers are procuring based on immediate needs, leading to a stable yet slightly soft market. Key raw materials like nylon PA6 chips for high-speed spinning have also shown stable market trends1.

This stability persists despite limited cost support and no significant improvement in downstream demand. Manufacturers continue purchases based on essential needs, resulting in moderate overall market turnover. Industry players are maintaining a strong wait-and-see sentiment, causing minimal price fluctuations in nylon fibers1.

As of September 7, 2025, in China's Jiangsu region, prices for various nylon filaments remained unchanged:

• Polyamide DTY (70D/24F, premium grade): CNY 14,320/ton

• Polyamide DTY (86D/24F, premium grade): CNY 12,050/ton

• Polyamide FDY (40D/12F, premium grade): CNY 14,900/ton1

The caprolactam market (a key raw material) saw a slight decline, with Sinopec's weekly settlement price at CNY 9,120/ton. The nylon PA6 chip market remained weak and range-bound, indicating persistent weak cost-side support1.

Looking ahead, traditional seasonal demand improvements in September might boost nylon filament consumption. However, inventory pressures could lead some producers to reduce operating rates. Furthermore, with new industry capacity continuing to come online, overall supply pressure is expected to remain elevated
