Effective immediately, or as customer contracts allow, Solenis (Wilmington, Del., USA) will increase prices by 5-20% on specialty chemicals for the pulp and paper industry in the Asia Pacific region. The company will also increase prices by 5-10% for polyacrylamide (PAM) products in the region. These price changes are necessary due to the increase in certain raw material costs combined with a tightening overall global supply chain.
