Arkema, a global chemical company, announced last week a 50 euros per
ton price increase for its entire Evatane EVA range (High Content
Ethylene Vinyl Acetate copolymers) applicable in Europe from June 15
2009.
Price increases will also be implemented in the other regions of the world where they will be announced by our local salesforce.
These price increases have become necessary to offset further rises in raw material costs in recent months, while the EVA market has experienced price erosion.
