BASF to increase prices for Terluran and Luran styrenic plastics
From March 1st this year BASF will raise its European prices for the styrene polymers Terluran® (ABS) and Luran® (SAN) by EUR200 per metric ton. These measures are necessary because raw material costs have increased again and are expected to increase further. This has made the extreme erosion of margins for these two product groups even worse.
Both product groups belong to BASF's range of styrenic plastics commodities. Terluran is the trade name for BASF's ABS (acrylonitrile/styrene/butadiene copolymer). BASF's styrene/acrylonitrile-copolymer (SAN) is marketed under the trade name Luran. Both plastic materials are used in a wide variety of household, office, automotive, sports and leisure items.
