Manufacturing costs are shifting in 2026—and that's not what most buyers expected. Our sector specialists, Travis Cantrell and Patrick Garr, share their latest market analysis revealing which supply chains face real pricing pressure and where you can still negotiate favorable terms. Four key takeaways: 🔆 Chemicals and gases stay stable: Soft downstream demand keeps pricing power limited. Focus on contract flexibility and feedstock monitoring for early indicators of change. 🔆 Corrugated prices are on the move: PCA's $70-90/ton increase signals renewed producer confidence. This could ripple across multiple supply chains—get ahead of follow-on actions now. 🔆 Lumber, metals, and freight are firming up: Lumber tariff delays are easing short-term pressure, but metals remain strong on tight supply and elevated input costs. Budget for high single-digit freight rate growth. 🔆 Plastics remain buyer-friendly: Polyethylene and polypropylene pricing stay soft amid ample supply—use this window to lock in favorable contracts before market dynamics shift later in Q1. See the full article below. Ping me for further discussion, cheers!
