Polystyrene prices rose in October because of benzene feedstock increase — Senior reporter Frank Esposito discusses the reasons behind the price change. Attendance at Fakuma 2023 trade show, held in Friedrichshafen, Germany, rose in comparison to the last time the show was held in 2021 amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Esposito also talks about what the numbers mean for the industry and possible implications for the upcoming NPE 2024.
