Glycerin trades for 2025, lack of supply expected to support pricing: sources

Glycerin offers for the first quarter of 2025 have been feeling out the market over the past several weeks. A trader confirmed buying small quantities of 80% crude glycerin and refined glycerin for the first quarter from an integrated producer. Generally, producers would be contracting first-quarter volumes by now.

“I have a significant amount of volume to buy for Q1 but was able to put on a couple small positions just above current market pricing,” the glycerin trader said.

A Fastmarkets survey of market participants showed 80% crude glycerin remained in the range of $0.11-0.15 per lb, with a larger portion of the trade falling within $0.13-0.15 per lb this week compared with last week.
