Eka Chemicals will increase prices across its entire North American paper chemicals product range by up to 20% with immediate effect.
"During the second half of 2010 cost increases of basic materials have impacted Eka Chemicals’ cost structure." says Greg Bengtson, Vice-President, Sales and Marketing, Eka Chemicals Inc. North America.
"Our on-going efforts to optimize operational costs have been outpaced by these increases. It is therefore necessary for prices to be increased in order to maintain a sustainable business."
