Ashland will increase the price of its portfolio of UPR and gelcoat products in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) by 100 Euros per metric ton and its portfolio of epoxy vinyl ester products by 150 Euros per metric ton. This increase will take effect February 1, 2018, or as soon as possible thereafter as contracts allow. This increase is in addition to the increase announcement of December 8, 2017.
This increase is primarily driven by continued escalation of costs in key raw materials including styrene, liquid epoxy resins (LERs) and glycols.
