Price increase from March 1st, 2021
January 2021
COVID 19 and the global pandemic has meant unprecedented challenges for the whole of society and the situation in 2021 continues to be difficult. We had to adapt to the new business environment and implement many new procedures and processes to ensure that the supply of our products was not interrupted and that we remain a reliable supplier to our customers.
However, we have experienced cost increases, in energy and raw materials and have recently seen large increases in transport costs. The increase in transport costs is a worldwide trend which is affecting many companies. The new health and safety measures we implemented due to COVID 19 including social distancing and rapid testing of employees have also increased costs.
We therefore have to increase the price of HOSTAPHAN® polyester Film by 0.15 Euro/kg for all deliveries from 1 March 2021.
