Due to recent price increases of a variety of raw materials including carbon black, oil, and pigments, Sun Chemical, Parsippany, N.J., USA, will increase prices on its offset inks, coatings, and consumables across North America, effective Feb. 15, 2018.
Prices will vary depending on the product line, but in general most prices will go up by a percentage in the high single digits.
