SI Flooring Systems Increases Carpet Backing Price
Calhoun, GA, September 30-SI Flooring Systems is announcing a 6% price increase across its entire product line of carpet backing products as a result of escalating raw material prices and higher fixed costs. The price increase is effective on all shipments starting October 4th.
"Due to a continued trend of rising costs in raw materials, SI Flooring basically has no other choice than to increase the price of our products," says Kemp Harr, vice president of marketing for SI Flooring Systems. "Without an immediate price increase, the fiscal health of our business would be in jeopardy, and we owe it to our employees and customers to do what it takes to remain a healthy and viable company.
"Our goal is to continue to provide the innovation, quality, and service to our customers have learned to expect from us," continued Harr. "We will strive to maintain our position as a stable backing supplier to the industry."
