Platts metals publications to carry caustic soda prices

Platts will begin publishing Asian caustic soda price assessments, currently assessed by the Platts Petrochemicals group, in its metals publications starting September 27.

The enhancement is being made for the benefit of subscribers interested in inputs to alumina, which also relate to aluminum.

The weekly price assessments will be published on Platts Metals Alert fixed page PMA 0050, and the monthly averages will appear on PMA 0052.

Caustic soda market commentary for the Asian market will appear on PMA 0051.

Caustic soda prices will also be published in Metals Week, on the weekly price assessments page in the Aluminum section, and in the Platts Metals Daily supplement to Metals Week, London close edition.
