MUMBAI, India - June 9, 2014 - PRLog -- South Asia’s leading polymer and petrochemical market intelligence web portal — PolymerUpdate — has been upgraded with a fresh new look and feel and a dynamic user interface. PolymerUpdate, which essentially caters to the pricing intelligence needs of companies and individuals in the plastics and petrochemicals industry, now sports a red and black design and with a streamlined user interface allowing quick and easy manoeuvring through the website.

“We are glad to inform you that Polymerupdate.com (http://www.polymerupdate.com/) is now available in a revamped format with exciting new features for an enhanced customer experience.
