Kemira announces price increase for AKD wax in APAC region

Kemira will implement a price increase of up to 5-15 % for AKD (alkyl ketene dimer) wax products in the Asia Pacific region. The adjustment will be effective immediately or as the existing contracts allow. The increased costs within the AKD-wax supply chain make this price adjustment necessary.

We remain a committed partner to our customers, ensuring security of supply while keeping our cost of production highly competitive and maintaining our high-quality service level.
