22 Dec '07
1 min read
Polymer Group Inc announced price increases of 5 to 7 percent on select nonwovens roll goods used in medical and other applications, due to sustained high raw material costs.
Effective Jan. 1, 2008, the increases will vary by product and primarily apply to products with petroleum-based raw materials, including polyester and polypropylene.
“Raw material costs have significantly increased throughout 2007 and remain highly volatile," said Fernando Marin, senior director of PGI's global medical business unit. “These increases are necessary to continue offering the best technical products and services. PGI remains committed to making our global manufacturing operations as efficient as possible.”
The company also said prices on certain polypropylene-based products will be increased, depending on region.
Polymer Group Inc, one of the world's leading producers of nonwovens, is a global, technology-driven developer, producer and marketer of engineered materials. With the broadest range of process technologies in the nonwovens industry, PGI is a global supplier to leading consumer and industrial product manufacturers.
