NOVA Innovene Announces Price Increase for its Styrenic Polymers
December 23 , 2005
FRIBOURG -- NOVA Innovene announced it will increase prices for both Polystyrene (PS) and Expandable Polystyrene (EPS) by 100 Euro per metric tonne, effective January 1st, 2006.
This increase is being implemented as a result of continued poor margins and expected price increases in feedstock in the beginning of 2006.
"NOVA Innovene has a strong focus on margin improvement. Unacceptable margins over 2005 have made this increase necessary", said Martin Pugh, Managing Director.
Customers interested in learning more about the price increse should contact their local NOVA Innovene country manager.
