Epichlorohydrin Prices, Demand and Supply Overview
Epichlorohydrin drifted sideways for most of 2025, then found a bid in the second quarter of 2026. Germany led the move, up 4.1%, USD 2,150/MT in Q1 to USD 2,238/MT in Q2, as propylene firmed and epoxy-resin demand from wind energy and electronics picked up. Before that, the story was overcapacity: too much Asian epoxy capacity holding prices flat. The global average firmed from USD 1,680/MT to USD 1,748/MT, about 4.0%. For the rest of 2026 a USD 1,700-1,850/MT band looks fair, resting on firmer propylene and glycerol and a slow epoxy-demand recovery.
Epichlorohydrin (C3H5ClO), ECH to the trade, is a reactive chlorinated epoxide. It is made two ways, from propylene through allyl chloride, or from glycerol on the bio-based route, and it is a colourless, mobile liquid with a sharp smell. Epoxy resins take almost all of it. React ECH with bisphenol A and you get the backbone behind protective coatings, wind-turbine blades, electrical laminates and electronics, composites, and adhesives. Smaller streams feed water-treatment polyamines, synthetic glycerol, and specialty elastomers. Propylene and glycerol sit at the top of the two routes, with chlorine and caustic soda rounding out the inputs, so ECH costs move with them. On the demand side, one thing sets the tone: how fast epoxy resin is selling, especially into wind, coatings, and electronics.
Epichlorohydrin Price Forecast for 2026
The second half is firming off a low base. Epoxy-resin demand from wind energy and electronics started to come back, and propylene got dearer. Asian overcapacity still caps how far this can run, but the market has clearly left its 2025 lows.
Upside would come from a propylene or glycerol spike landing alongside a stronger epoxy rebound, carrying prices past our band. Downside would be fresh Asian capacity, or a weak coatings and construction cycle, easing buying below it.
| Region | 2026 Price Range (USD/MT) | Outlook |
| Global Average | 1,700 - 1,850 | Propylene cost and epoxy-demand recovery |
| United States | 1,920 - 2,050 | Epoxy and coatings demand firm |
| China | 1,450 - 1,570 | Large capacity keeps China the cheapest source |
| Germany | 2,200 - 2,360 | Energy and feedstock costs hold the premium |
| India | 1,800 - 1,930 | Epoxy and construction demand support the middle |

Coatings demand was quiet early in the year. Propylene sat still. Prices drifted down, then firmed.
Epichlorohydrin Prices in China
China slipped about 1.3% to USD 1,420/MT. A post-holiday lull and lingering epoxy overcapacity held it back before the Q2 turn.
Why did the price of Epichlorohydrin change in Q1 2026 in China?
Holiday-season demand thinned. Overcapacity kept a lid on. The market softened, briefly.
Epichlorohydrin Prices in Germany
Germany eased roughly 0.7% to USD 2,150/MT. Quiet early-year epoxy demand pulled it down, though energy-linked costs kept the floor high.
Why did the price of Epichlorohydrin change in Q1 2026 in Germany?
European epoxy demand was slow to start the year. High energy costs cushioned the dip. Prices eased, then recovered.
Epichlorohydrin Prices in India
India came off about 1.0% to USD 1,760/MT. Soft early-year epoxy demand and flat imported feedstock eased it before Q2.
Why did the price of Epichlorohydrin change in Q1 2026 in India?
Epoxy and coatings demand was soft early on. Imported feedstock held flat. The market eased ahead of the rebound.
Quarterly Epichlorohydrin Price Trends
This one zig-zagged. Prices held in a narrow range through 2025 as Asian overcapacity offset firmer feedstock, then jumped in Q2 2026 on recovering epoxy demand. The path: USD 1,705/MT in Q2 2025, USD 1,690/MT in Q3, back to USD 1,700/MT in Q4, down to USD 1,680/MT in Q1 2026, then USD 1,748/MT in Q2. About 2.5% higher across the window. Propylene and glycerol costs and the epoxy cycle drove the bumps.

Key Questions Answered in the Report
Epoxy resins take nearly all of it. Reacted with bisphenol A, ECH forms the backbone in protective coatings, wind-turbine blades, electrical laminates and electronics, composites, and adhesives. Smaller volumes go into water-treatment polyamines, synthetic glycerol, and specialty elastomers.
Q2 2026 averages: USD 1,955/MT in the US, USD 1,478/MT in China, USD 2,238/MT in Germany, USD 1,832/MT in India. Germany is dearest on energy-heavy production and feedstock costs.
After a soft Q1, the global average firmed from USD 1,680/MT to USD 1,748/MT in Q2, about 4.0%, as epoxy demand recovered and propylene climbed.
Asian epoxy overcapacity and soft coatings demand cancelled out firmer feedstock, so prices stayed flat. The global average eased about 1.7% over the year before 2026 firmed it.
A global average of USD 1,700 to 1,850/MT looks likely, on firmer propylene and glycerol and a gradual epoxy-demand recovery.
Germany is highest on energy and feedstock costs. The US and India hold the middle. China prices lowest on its large base.
Monthly. For live numbers, the Expert Market Research team can help directly.
The movers are propylene and glycerol costs, chlor-alkali economics, epoxy demand from wind energy and coatings, and Asian capacity and exports.
China holds the most capacity, then other Asian producers and European and US plants. A move in propylene or glycerol, or a shift in epoxy demand, reaches every market.
Track propylene and glycerol as the floor signal, follow the epoxy cycle in wind and coatings, and cover forward as demand climbs off the 2025 base.
