WACKER SILICONES Raises Prices
WACKER SILICONES will raise prices for its silane and silicone products, effective April 1, 2003. These price increases are necessitated chiefly by climbing costs for raw materials and energy.
Over the past years, major productivity enhancements have permitted WACKER SILICONES to maintain steady prices for its silane and silicone products. However, costs for raw materials, packaging, energy and logistics have risen sharply in recent months. WACKER SILICONES is therefore compelled to increase its prices, despite further productivity gains. Prices will increase five to ten percent, in accordance with product-specific manufacturing costs.
These price adjustments ensure WACKER SILICONES' continued ability to supply the first-rate support and product innovations to which our customers are accustomed.
