Kemira increases prices of sizing technologies in the APAC region

Kemira, a global chemicals company serving customers in the pulp and paper industry, announces price increases for sizing technologies in the Asia Pacific region.

The adjustment will be effective immediately or as contracts allow and as follows:

  • FennoSize ASA: 5-15%
  • FennoSize cationic rosin 10–30%
  • FennoSize AKD emulsion 10–15%.

The decision is triggered by continuous cost increases of raw materials, energy and logistics, as well as regulatory compliance requirements, combined with limited availability of key raw materials which are used in the manufacturing of these technologies.
