BASF to increase prices for all Wet-End Paper Chemicals

Effective September 1, 2008, or as contracts allow, BASF SE, Ludwigshafen, will raise prices by 15% for all Wet-End Paper Chemicals in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

The price increases are the result of significant rises in key raw material costs. For BASF these price increases are necessary to remain a reliable supplier of innovative paper chemicals.
