Wacker Polymers is to raise its prices for Vinnapas vinyl acetate-ethylene and ethylene-vinyl chloride-based copolymer dispersions in the Americas. Effective June 1, 2012, Wacker will implement a price increase of $0.03 per wet pound, or as customer contracts allow. This measure has been necessitated by the continued increase in raw material and distribution cost.
The price adjustment will enable Wacker Polymers to continue providing excellent quality and comprehensive technical service and to boost the development of innovative product and process technologies for the benefit of customers.
Vinnapas dispersions are applied in a broad variety of industries, ranging from adhesives, nonwovens, paints and coatings to paper, building products, carpet and textiles.
Wacker Polymers is a leading producer of state-of-the-art binders and polymer additives based on polyvinyl acetate and vinyl acetate copolymers.
