Remarks by French president Emmanuel Macron suggest a tougher approach to protecting Europe as global chemicals move towards a 2028 bottom of cycle.

- Ethylene, propylene capacity additions to accelerate, peak in 2027

- 2028 bottom of the cycle, project delays could push this out to 2029

- 2000-2028 almost 75% of global capacity additions for key building blocks have been in China

- Final investment decision (FID)-to-on spec production can be only 2.5 years in China, so risk of further projects adding to the problem

- China additions may slow from 2030 due to peak carbon goals

- Fight for survival for producers in Europe and Asia

- To balance markets around 24m tonnes of ethylene closures required – equivalent to demand of Europe, Former USSR and Africa

- 26m tonnes of propylene closures required - equivalent to capacity of Europe, Former USSR and Africa

- Olefins demand at 30-year low in Europe, to 1990s levels, and will not revive

- Signs of a more protectionist approach by Europe to save industrial base

- Producers in China are also suffering from overcapacity, losing money

- China exported more chemicals than the US or Middle East in Q2 2025

- Trinseo closure, INEOS Quattro ratings downgrade spell more bad news
