Solenis to Increase Prices on Wet Strength Product Lines Across Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA)

March 18, 2021

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WILMINGTON, Del. (USA) – Solenis, a leading global producer of specialty chemicals, will increase prices by up to 20 percent on all wet strength resins in EMEA, effective immediately or as contracts allow. The price increase is necessary due to lack of raw material availability, escalating key raw material costs and a surge in freight costs that has led to additional pressure on our global supply chain.

“We are unable to absorb the impact of the increased costs that we are currently experiencing but we will continue to work in partnership with our customers to help mitigate the increases,” said Jose Santolaya, director, EMEA marketing and product management.
