WACKER to Raise Polymer Product Prices by 15 Percent

WACKER Group will increase prices for resins, dispersions and dispersible polymer powders sourced from its production sites in Europe and the USA by up to 15 percent. The company said the adjustment will help its Polymers division maintain product quality, technological innovation, customer service and technical support, while supporting future investments across focus markets.

The price revision has been driven by rising costs of raw materials and logistics. WACKER said the recent conflict in the Middle East has disrupted global commodity markets, leading to higher energy, raw material and logistics costs. The company’s global polymers business has been particularly affected by these developments.

WACKER’s Polymers division produces binders and polymeric additives based on polyvinyl acetate, vinyl acetate copolymers and terpolymers. Its products include dispersible polymer powders, dispersions, solid resins and solutions used in construction chemicals, paints, coatings, adhesives, nonwovens, fibre composites and renewable-resource-based polymeric materials."
