Wayne, New Jersey -- International Specialty Products Inc. raised prices on its styrene-butadiene rubber lines Sept. 13 by 35 to 45 cents per pound, depending on grade.
The company cited continuously escalating costs of energy, monomers, process oils and carbon black for the increases and said the hikes will support ISP Elastomers' continued investment at its Port Neches, Texas, plant.
The increases are 45 cents for the 1500 series, 35 cents for the 1600 series, 40 cents for 1700 series and 35 cents for the 1800 series.
