BASF to increase prices globally for Styrenic Copolymer Specialties and Engineering Plastics
As of July 1st, 2008, BASF will be raising its prices globally up to 400 Euro per metric ton across its portfolio of Styrenic Copolymer Specialties and Engineering plastics. This includes the Styrenic Copolymer Specialties Luran® S (ASA and ASA/PC), Terluran® (ABS)-Specialties, Terlux® (MABS), Luran® HH (AMSAN), Luran® (SAN), Terblend® N (ABS/PA), Styroflex® (SBC) and the Engineering Plastics Ultramid®, Miramid®, Capron®, Nypel® (PA), Ultradur® (PBT) and Ultraform® (POM). The prices for Ultrason® grades (PSU, PESU, PPSU) and polyamide specialties will be raised by up to 850 Euro per metric ton.
According to the company, this measure is due to the unprecedented increases in the cost of raw materials, energy and transportation. The price increases are necessary, so that BASF's plastics business can continue to provide high quality products, reliable services and innovative solutions.
Styrenic copolymer specialties and engineering plastics are used everywhere in the automotive, building and construction, health care and diagnostics industries as well as in electrical and electronics, household, packaging, office and recreation sectors.
