Wacker Polymers to raise prices
Wacker Polymers is to raise its prices for dispersions in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), as well as in Asia.
In Asia, prices for Vinnapas vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer dispersions will be raised by up to five percent per kilogram, or as allowed by individual contract terms. This measure has been necessitated by the continued increase in raw-material cost, according to a presselease.
Dispersions of the Vinnapas and Vinnol brand are applied in a broad variety of industries, ranging from adhesives, construction, nonwovens, paints and coatings to paper, carpet and textiles.
