Weekly Statistical Data on Production Profit of Chinese DOTP Samples (November 6–12, 2026)

During the current cycle (November 6–12, 2026), the average weekly gross production margin for sample DOTP enterprises in Zhejiang, China, stood at 707 yuan/ton. Theoretical weekly profits continued to rise, increasing by 148 yuan/ton compared to the previous cycle, representing a week-on-week growth of 26.48%. As the decline in DOTP prices was smaller than the drop in raw material costs, profit margins expanded further. However, factories primarily focused on fulfilling existing orders from earlier periods, resulting in subdued trading activity for new contracts.
