ChemPriceHub Alert: Caustic Soda Imports Plummet by 45.1%

In 2025, China's cumulative import volume of caustic soda was 8,900 tons, a year-on-year decrease of 45.1%. PriceSeek's analysis of caustic soda indicates a bullish-bearish score of 1. The 45.1% year-on-year decline in caustic soda imports in 2025 suggests a tightening domestic supply, which may drive up spot prices. Combined with recent futures contract data for caustic soda (e.g., the closing price of the 2605 contract at 2,204 yuan per ton, up by 4 yuan), the market is responding positively to the reduced supply, supporting an upward trend in futures prices.
