Vitamin K3 (Menadione) Price Trend Q3 2025
In Q3 2025, the global Vitamin K3 (Menadione) market reflected a distinctly bearish sentiment, with pronounced downward movement across both Vitamin K3 (Menadione) Menadione Sodium Bisulfite (MSB >98%) and Vitamin K3 (Menadione) Menadione Nicotinamide Bisulfite (MNB >98%) grades. Vitamin K3 (Menadione) Menadione Sodium Bisulfite (MSB >98%) prices were influenced by ample supply, subdued purchasing from feed and premix manufacturers, and competitive domestic offers in China, resulting in significant price fluctuations of 14-15% during the quarter. Similarly, Vitamin K3 (Menadione) Menadione Nicotinamide Bisulfite experienced even sharper declines, driven by weakened demand across poultry and livestock nutrition sectors, elevated inventories, and steady production rates, keeping price fluctuations around 15%.
Stable raw material costs and consistent manufacturing output contributed to supply-side stability, though soft downstream consumption limited any upward momentum. While both grades faced reduced buying activity, modest baseline feed-sector demand helped prevent deeper market erosion. Looking ahead, changes in regional restocking cycles, export competitiveness among Chinese producers, and feed industry recovery trends are expected to shape Vitamin K3 (Menadione) pricing dynamics into the next quarter.
