AOC announces today a price increase for its product portfolio sold in Europe, Middle East, Africa and India. The increase will be up to EUR 300 per ton for Unsaturated Polyester, Vinyl Ester and Neoxil® products, subject to the specific product involved. The price increase will take effect 1 May 2026, or in line with individual contractual arrangements.
The ongoing Middle East crisis continues to drive severe cost inflation through sharp increases in raw material prices, transportation disruptions, and elevated fuel costs. These changes have had a substantial effect on AOC’s cost structure and have resulted in the need for further price adjustment.
"These extraordinary conditions are beyond our control and require us to adjust pricing in line with rapidly rising costs," said Jonathan Pantanowitz, Managing Director EMEA and India. “Our global teams remain focused on managing costs and ensuring supply continuity. We will continue to communicate transparently as the situation evolves and thank you for your ongoing partnership.”
