DSM Engineering Plastics has announced a price increase for its range of
polyester resins in Europe, effective June 15th, or as contracts permit, for
all shipments. These increases affect both Arnitel® TPE and Arnite® PBT and
PET products.
The specific increases are as follows:
• Arnite (PBT and PET) €150/ton increase
• Arnitel (TPE-E) €150/ton increase
Fredric Petit, Global Business Manager for DSM Engineering Plastics: "These
new prices reflect the increase in the cost of petrochemical raw materials,
transportation and energy. As we continue to fund investments in innovations,
new products and new technology development for our customers, these adjusted
price levels will allow DSM to maintain its supply of high quality products
and services and retain its position as a sustainable partner within the
performance materials industry."
