U.S. Chemical Production Softened
“U.S. chemical production contracted in April, with a 0.1% decrease from March,” said David Lan, ACC’s Director of Economics and Statistics. “Production declined in most regions of the country except the Gulf Coast.”
“Following a gain in March (0.7%), global production continued to rise by 0.7% in April 2025,” Lan added. Production increased in Europe and Asia but declined in North America, South America, and Russia.
