Kemira will implement a price increase up to 15 %, depending on product segment, for its Pulp and Paper Chemicals. The adjustment will affect selected product lines between 5-15% and will be immediately implemented or as existing contracts allow.
The price increase is an effect of increases in all major cost drivers; including key feed stocks and raw material, energy and transport. Kemira has continuously rationalized operations and reduced fixed costs, but has now reached a point when a price increase is necessary to secure the position as a strong supplier to the Pulp & Paper Industry.
