(styron) --
Styron Europe GmbH and its affiliate companies in Europe announced today price
increases for all polystyrene and copolymers grades.
Effective
immediately, or as existing contract terms allow, the prices for the products
listed below will increase as follows: STYRON general purpose polystyrene
grades (GPPS) by Euro 40 per metric ton, STYRON and STYRON A-TECH high impact
polystyrene grades (HIPS) by 80 Euro per metric ton, MAGNUM ABS resins by 100
Euro per metric ton, TYRIL SAN resin by 45 Euro per metric ton.
In
addition to keeping pace with the continuous escalation in all raw material
costs associated with the manufacturing of these products since the beginning of
the year, this price increase seeks to restore adequate operating margins so
that Styron can meet the ongoing needs of its customers in Europe.
