Wacker Polymers is to raise its prices for Vinnapas vinyl acetate homopolymer dispersions as well as Vinnapas vinyl acetate-ethylene and Vinnol ethylene-vinyl chloride-based copolymer dispersions in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA). Effective June 15, 2015, Wacker will implement a price increase of up to €50 per ton, or as customer contracts allow. This measure has become necessary in the view of the recent increase in raw-materials cost.
The price adjustment enables Wacker Polymers to continue providing customers a wide-range of innovative quality products and comprehensive technical, sales and customer support services.
Dispersions of the Vinnapas and Vinnol brand are applied in a broad variety of industries, ranging from adhesives, construction, nonwovens, paints and coatings to paper, carpet and textiles.
