Day International increases price of Varn Chemical Products

Day International has announced a price increase for its Varn pressroom chemical line. The increase will apply to virtually all Varn product categories: fountain solutions, web conditioners, washes, coatings, and specialty products. The company says that the increase is due to the continuing rise in the cost of materials, energy and transportation.

Jeff Pieper, senior vice president of Day's Chemical Products Division said, ‘Day International continues to pursue cost reduction and improved efficiency throughout our operations, however, we are unable to fully offset the cost increases caused by current economic forces and higher energy costs. We appreciate the understanding and support of our dealers and users of Varn products during these difficult times.’

Day International is a global manufacturer and distributor of consumable pressroom products. The company operates production, sales and distribution centers in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia-Pacific.
