Royal DSM, a purpose-led global science-based company active in Nutrition, Health and Sustainable Living, today announces a price increase for its Akulon polyamide 6 and 66 compounds in Europe, Middle East and Africa.

The price increases of €150/mT for Akulon PA6 compounds and €200/mT for Akulon PA66 compounds are due to the rising costs of raw materials and will be effective on 1 March 2021, where contracts and agreements allow.

While DSM continues to pursue and implement cost-saving initiatives, this price increase is necessary to ensure DSM’s sustainable long-term position as leading supplier of engineering materials.
