Reichhold announced a price increase today of up to $0.10 USD per pound on all Coating Resin products manufactured in the United States and Canada. This increase is effective for all orders shipped on or after February 15th.

Julie Fuell, Sales Director North American Coatings, stated: “Escalation in raw material prices at the end of 2016 and continuing into 2017 necessitates the need for us to pass on these increases to our customers. These raw materials include, but are not limited to, solvents, polyols, oils, and dibasic acids. Reichhold continues to work with our suppliers to minimize the impact of these continued increases. Your local Reichhold representative will contact you to relay product specific increase amounts.”
