Kemira, Finland, a global chemicals company serving customers in the pulp and paper industry, this week announced price increases for sizing technologies globally.

Effective immediately or as contracts allow, the price of FennoSize ASA and AKD based offerings will increase by up to 15%.

The decision is triggered by continuous cost increases of raw materials, energy and logistics, and regulatory compliance requirements combined with limited availability of key raw materials, which are used in the manufacturing of these technologies.
