Huber Engineered Materials announces price increase for industrial ground calcium carbonate grades
Atlanta (BUSINESS WIRE) - Huber Engineered Materials, part of J.M. Huber Corporation, today announced a price increase for its industrial calcium carbonate grades.
The increase does not apply to Huber's food and USP calcium carbonate grades.
The increase is effective July 1, 2008, or as current contracts allow.
Prices will increase five to 10 percent, dependent upon the product grade, volume and form.
Increases in freight, energy, raw materials costs and rising investments in maintaining customer service levels cannot be offset by productivity improvements and processing efficiency, Huber officials said.
