Kemira, a global chemicals company, announces price increases for all polymers globally to Industry & Water, Pulp & Paper, and Oil & Gas businesses.
As global demand continues to rebound post-Covid, the supply of key raw materials remains heavily constrained. The supply-demand balance is significantly increasing the cost of raw materials, logistics, packaging, and utilities.
The following price increases will become effective immediately or as contract terms allow:
| Product line | Price increase |
| Dry powder polymers | + 10-15% |
| Emulsion polymers | + 8-15% |
| Other liquid polymers | +10-20% |
Price increases will vary based on geographic region and will differ by product type and may be higher in selected areas.
Kemira continues to be committed as a long-standing supplier of high-quality products and solutions for the water-intensive industries globally.
