BASF increases prices for pigments, dyes and preparations worldwide

05 February 2018

Effective today, or as contracts allow, BASF will increase prices for pigments, dyes and preparations by up to 15% worldwide.

The price increase will affect all market segments, predominantly the coatings, plastics and printing industries.

Price adjustments are necessary due to higher raw material prices, eg for pre-cursers of pigments and dyes, as well as increased costs for regulatory efforts like registration, environmental, health and safety.

The ‘Colors & Effects’ brand encompasses BASF’s expertise in colourants and effect pigments for the coatings, plastics, printing, cosmetics and agriculture markets.
