Buyer Takeaway — June 10

The Florfenicol floor is lifting. What held at CNY 165–175/kg through May is now moving to CNY 170–180/kg — buyers who didn't cover in May and June are paying more now. Tilmicosin remains soft, offering a rare dual-window for buyers who need both. CNY holding at 6.75 means the currency tailwind is still there. SUNWARD INDUSTRY has Florfenicol stock available now — next-day dispatch. Lock in before this window closes.

⚡ Window Period Active

Florfenicol: SUNWARD has stock available for immediate dispatch — MOQ 25kg, full GMP docs. This window closes as Q3 demand builds.

Tilmicosin Phosphate: Soft-demand environment still holding. Buyers in AU/NZ, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Philippines — now is the time to negotiate favorable terms while supply is loose.

Florfenicol — Floor Lifting ⚠️

What happened

Florfenicol spot prices have moved up from the CNY 165–175/kg floor to CNY 170–180/kg. Multiple factories are citing reduced spot availability and extending lead times for new orders. The floor that held through May is no longer the floor — it's becoming a new base.

SUNWARD's judgment

This is not a temporary pullback. Factory discipline is real, and Q3 demand in AU/NZ and SE Asia typically strengthens from July onward. If current tightness persists, the CNY 175–185/kg range is achievable by August. For buyers who delayed from May: you're already paying more. For those who haven't acted yet: the window is still open today, but it closes before you think.

What you can do now

Cover your Q3 Florfenicol requirements before end of June. SUNWARD has stock ready — next-day dispatch to major ports. MOQ 25kg. GMP documentation and batch COA included. View product details → or request a quote now.

SUNWARD's note: For buyers in AU/NZ, Turkey, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Philippines: if you source both Florfenicol and Tilmicosin from the same supplier, now is the time to consolidate. Combined orders help optimize sea freight and give you one documentation point of contact.

Tilmicosin Phosphate — Soft Window Still Open 📉

What happened

Tilmicosin Phosphate remains in a soft-demand environment. Factory output is steady but buyer interest is subdued, creating favorable negotiation conditions for buyers who know what they want.

SUNWARD's judgment

This window won't last forever. Tilmicosin and Florfenicol often move together in Q3 as livestock producers stock up for seasonal demand. If Florfenicol demand continues to tighten, some factory capacity will shift — and Tilmicosin's softness could compress faster than expected. The soft window is open now. Lock in if you have H2 plans.

What you can do now

If you've been waiting for Tilmicosin pricing to settle — it has. Negotiate now while conditions are still favorable. SUNWARD offers next-day dispatch, MOQ 25kg, and flexible payment terms for established buyers. View product details → or request a quote.

FX Watch: CNY Holds 6.75 — Currency Tailwind Persists 💱

What happened

USD/CNY has stabilized at 6.75 — the strongest level since early2023. The AUD/CNY pair sits around 4.82, giving AU/NZ buyers improved purchasing power for CNY-denominated contracts.

SUNWARD's judgment

At 6.75, buyers paying in USD, AUD, EUR, or other major currencies are getting roughly 8% better purchasing power than the April peak of 7.33. This is not a small number when you're ordering500kg or more. If you have Q3 or Q4 delivery needs, locking in CNY-denominated quotes now is a rational move — not speculation.

What you can do now

Ask your supplier for CNY-denominated pricing on your next order. The favorable rate improves your landed cost without any change in factory price. Contact SUNWARD with your quantity and destination port for a firm CNY quote valid for 7 days.

SUNWARD's note: For Australian and New Zealand buyers: AUD/CNY at 4.82 means your purchasing power for Chinese APIs is at its best level since late 2025. If you have forward purchasing needs for H2, this is the rate environment to fix in. For Turkish buyers: USD/EUR terms remain preferable given TRY dynamics — CNY/TRY around 6.75, factor this into your calculations.

Shipping: China–AU/NZ Route Elevated but Predictable 🚢

What happened

Ocean freight from China to Australia and New Zealand remains elevated but stable. 20GP to Sydney/Melbourne at $1,150–$1,420. LCL consolidation available from $28/CBM. Transit18–28 days.

SUNWARD's judgment

Sea freight is elevated but not volatile — unlike the2021–2023 period. This is a manageable cost environment. Book space 2–3 weeks ahead to lock in your delivery window. Consolidation is the most cost-effective route for orders under 500kg.

What you can do now

Include your port and preferred delivery window in any quote request. SUNWARD can arrange consolidated shipping to AU/NZ, Turkey, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Philippines — sea freight only.

SUNWARD's note: For Indonesian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, and Philippine buyers: major port connectivity is strong. Lead time 12–20 days from Chinese ports to your destination. Consolidation recommended for orders under 500kg — we can help arrange this.

Crude Oil: WTI Above $90/bbl — Watch Propylene Glycol⚠️

What happened

WTI crude holding above $90/barrel driven by Middle East tensions. Petrochemical feedstock costs remain elevated. Propylene Glycol and Dipropylene Glycol are the products most exposed to oil-linked price movements.

SUNWARD's judgment

Propylene Glycol buyers: price adjustment risk in the next 2–4 weeks is real. If you have fixed-price contracts with your end customers, review your landed cost assumptions now. Unlike veterinary APIs, petrochemical-linked products move faster with crude.

What you can do now

Lock in PG and DIPG pricing before potential June adjustments. SUNWARD holds stock — Propylene Glycol → Dipropylene Glycol →
