Eka Chemicals, Marietta, Ga., USA, a business unit within AkzoNobel, reported this past week that it is increasing prices across its entire North American paper chemicals product range by up to 20%, effective immediately.

"During the second half of 2010 cost increases of basic materials have impacted Eka Chemicals’ cost structure." says Greg Bengtson, VP, Sales and Marketing, Eka Chemicals North America. "Our on-going efforts to optimize operating costs have been outpaced by these increases. It is therefore necessary for prices to be increased to maintain a sustainable business."
