ATLANTA (Oct. 17, 2012)—Huber Engineered Materials, a division of J.M. Huber Corp. said it will increase prices globally up to 7 percent for its precipitated silicas and silicates.
The increase is effective beginning Oct. 30, or as current contracts allow.
The price adjustment is dependent on geographic region, and the increase has become necessary as a result of increasing costs in raw materials, energy, freight, labor and manufacturing.
