Kemira will implement a price increase of up to 15 % for selected AKD (alkyl ketene dimer) wax based sizing products in APAC. The adjustment will be immediately implemented or as the existing AKD wax contracts allow.
The price adjustment is a result of increased costs within the AKD-wax supply chain. AKD-wax is the main raw material for AKD-sizing products.
Kemira is a global chemicals company serving customers in water intensive industries.
