DSM Engineering Plastics increases prices in EMEA region

14-Nov-2006

DSM Engineering Plastics has announced a price increase for a number of polymers effective throughout the EMEA region from January 1st, 2007. According to Jos Goessens, Business Group Director for DSM Engineering Plastics: "The costs of energy, critical raw materials, transport and utilities for the manufacturing and supply of various DSM Engineering Plastics have been continuously high and in some cases (for example flame retardants, BDO), still increasing. DSM has been doing its up most to reduce the effects of these increases by ongoing restructuring and efficiency programs without reducing our service level nor our long term investment in R&D and the business in general. Therefore, we believe that - in order to continue our valuable partnership with customers on a long-term basis - there is no alternative but implementing price increases for below mentioned polymers in de EMEA region."
