Ashland to increase solvent and emulsion pressure-sensitive adhesives prices for North America

06-May-2010 - USA

Ashland Performance Materials, a commercial unit of Ashland Inc., is increasing the price of Aroset® and Flexcryl® solvent-based and emulsion pressure-sensitive adhesive product lines sold in North America, effective May 17, or at the earliest possible time thereafter depending on individual customer contracts. The amount of the increase will vary, and customers should contact their Ashland salesperson for specific details.

“Global supply is significantly tight for propylene, acrylic acid and acrylic monomers. In turn, this constraint creates increased cost pressures on key raw materials used to manufacture our pressure-sensitive adhesives product lines,” said David Hatgas, director, Global Product Management, Ashland Performance Materials.
