The global market of Dextrose has observed a notable decline across major regions in October 2025. The decline in the market values has reflected reduced demand from the downstream sectors and favourable feedstock conditions. The buyers of Dextrose in industries such as food, beverages and pharmaceuticals have moderated their procurement activity which diminished the upward pressure on the prices. The suppliers of Dextrose have responded strategically and offered price reductions. The discounts in prices were offered to stimulate absorption while maintaining market engagement. The ample availability of corn have further eased production pressures which enabled the manufacturers to adjust their prices downward. The convergence of weak demand, strategic supplier prices and lower production costs have contributed to a declining trend in values across the globe. ChemAnalyst anticipates that the Dextrose prices will likely continue on a downward trajectory in the near term. ChemAnalyst further suggests the suppliers and buyers of Dextrose to monitor the market closely by observing both demand trends and feedstock availability.
Selenis has effectively manufactured recycled PET chips using terephthalic acid sourced from Circ®, a textile-to-textile recycler based in Virginia. The chip production took place through a series of batches at Selenis' pilot plant in San-Giorgio, Italy. By utilizing inputs recovered from polycotton textile waste, Selenis has created high-quality PET chip, which has been further processed into DTY yarn. This yarn will play a crucial role in product development as Circ prepares for additional capsule launches. Selenis is leveraging the success of this initial collaboration phase and is committed to advancing towards an offtake partnership to support Circ's inaugural industrial facility.
Eduardo Santos, Head of Corporate Strategy at Selenis, remarked that the monomer synthesis showed a performance comparable to virgin terephthalic acid. He expressed optimism about the consistent quality of Circ's monomer output and anticipated future commercial success. Santos pointed out that the Circ partnership complements Selenis's existing mission and goals for a more sustainable textile industry. He further stated their anticipation of expanding upon this collaboration and providing support for Circ's forthcoming commercial production trials.
