TREE NEWS reports: The Silicon Industry Branch of the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association reported that n-type recharging polysilicon (rod silicon) traded at 43,000 yuan per tonne this week, flat week-on-week, while n-type granular silicon averaged 40,300 yuan per tonne within a 40,000-41,000 yuan range, also flat. Spot trading remained light, with only 2-3 companies signing new orders, and producers held prices at or above full cost as downstream buyers drew down inventories.
China silicon industry body: polysilicon supply contraction continues, supply-demand improves
The flat pricing alongside thinning spot activity suggests the market is clearing through inventory drawdown rather than fresh demand, which makes the supply contraction the more meaningful variable here. With only a handful of producers transacting, price discovery is thin and the reported stability may reflect seller discipline as much as genuine balance. For polysilicon producers and downstream wafer buyers, the question worth watching is whether the drawdown gives way to restocking demand before the supply pullback runs its course — that transition, not the flat print itself, would signal a real shift.
