(BYMNews) -- Effective 6th February 2012, Scott Bader Europe is increasing the price for its range of Crystic polyester, DCPD based and Vinyl ester resins by EUR100/tonne. Crystic gelcoats, Crestapol resins and Crestomer adhesives will also increase by EUR100/tonne.
Pigmented gelcoats and resins will increase by a minimum of EUR120/tonne with pigment pastes increasing by a minimum of EUR150/tonne. New prices will be applied to orders invoiced or delivered on or after this date subject to existing customer contracts.
This price increase is in response to continued rises in the costs of key oil based feedstock raw materials required for the manufacture of UPR resins, plus further rises in titanium dioxide.
