Sun Chemical to increase prices in North America

Citing recent price increases of a variety of raw materials, including carbon black, oil and pigments, Sun Chemical said prices will vary depending on the product line, but in general most prices will go up by a percentage in the high single digits.

Felipe Mellado, chief marketing officer at Sun Chemical, noted: ‘While Sun Chemical has done all it can to offset the price increases of our suppliers, it has now become necessary to pass some of these increases on to our customers. We regret having to take this action, but remain committed to providing the products and services that address all of our customers’ needs.’
