BASF, Germany, reports that, effective immediately or as contracts allow, it is raising kaolin clay prices globally for paper applications. The price hike depends on the product, with increases up to 7% for hydrous and calcined clay products. The company's energy surcharge policy remains unchanged with the threshold at $5/million btu.
