Enhance your procurement and protect profits
Few materials have grown more central to most manufacturing and wholesaling/retailing processes – and their costs – than plastics. Yet, traditional resin and packaging purchases can be susceptible to significant price swings in the plastics raw material markets – swings that can wreak havoc on budgets as they drive costs up and margins down.
The StoneX Plastics Team provides the market insights, access and expertise required to help businesses across multiple industry sectors understand the plastics markets better, make more informed purchasing decisions and protect their profit margins from price volatility.
Perhaps more important, our clients choose us because we put you first – every time. We focus on building personal relationships and a deep understanding of your trading strategies and objectives. By striving to use our entrepreneurial, flexible and agile approach, we provide real-time solutions to clients. The result is long-term relationships that add value beyond individual deals or transactions.
Our clients
We help companies protect their profit margins across the entire plastics supply chain – from fabricators and importers/exporters to consumer goods and food and beverage companies.
