BASF Increasing Price of Styrene-Butadiene Latex Polymers

Charlotte, NC, October 29, 2015—Effective December 1, or as contracts allow, BASF will increase prices for styrene-butadiene latex polymers sold in North America.  

In an effort to support the long-term sustainability of our business, prices will increase up to $0.15 per dry pound on Styrofan products sold into the carpet industry.  

The increase is necessitated by recent cost increases in the production and delivery of these products.
