As a result of unprecedented and continuing increases in the costs of its raw materials, DSM Engineering Plastics is required to increase prices for its Akulon® PA6 polymers and compounds in Europe. It will also increase prices for Akulon PA6 compounds in North America.
Effective 1 February 2013, DSM will increase prices by € 200/t in Europe, and by at least $0.10/lb in North America.
