On January 6, Hebei Shunkang quoted a price of 9,500 yuan/ton (including tax, ex-factory) for coconut shell activated carbon with an iodine value of 800, representing an increase of 50 yuan/ton. The current reduction in coconut shell production in Southeast Asia has led to higher prices for imported raw materials, driving up the cost of coconut shell activated carbon. PriceSeek's analysis of activated carbon, with a long-short score of 1.5, reports that Hebei Shunkang's coconut shell activated carbon price has risen by 50 yuan/ton to 9,500 yuan/ton, primarily due to the reduction in coconut shell production in Southeast Asia, which has increased the cost of imported raw materials and pushed up production costs. This factor directly benefits spot prices, and it is expected that prices may continue to rise in the short term. Therefore, a score of +1.5 is given, indicating a relatively strong positive impact.
