Kemira Hikes Paper Polymer Prices

Kemira, Finland, will raise its Paper segment prices for polymers, dispersants, and wet and dry strength products in all regions by 5% - 15%, effective immediately or as specific contract terms allow, the company said this week. Kemira noted that it will continue to take actions to minimize the impact of escalating raw material costs, but it is necessary to adjust pricing to compensate for the increased costs of raw materials, energy costs, and freight costs.
