BASF to Increase prices for Extrusion and fiber Polyamides in Europe
March 02, 2012 - Germany
BASF will increase prices of its Ultramid® extrusion and fiber polyamides in Europe by € 150 per metric ton with immediate effect. The price adjustment is necessary due to the strong increase in raw material costs. BASF continues its efforts to offset rising costs in a difficult environment. However, the extraordinary market conditions force BASF to implement this price increase.
BASF's Ultramid extrusion and fiber polyamides are used for producing films for food packaging and industrial use, for manufacturing monofilaments, for wire jacketing, for carpet and textile fibers.
