MARENGO, IL - EPS announced that it will raise prices for all acrylics, styrene acrylics, PVAs and PUDs by 4 cents/lb. effective July 23, 2018. The company stated that the price increase is a result of persistent inflation and product shortages on a wide range of commodities including propylene and acrylate/methacrylate esters used in the production of acrylic monomers. The company also pointed to rising freight costs as a contributing factor to the overall cost pressure.

EPS indicated that other terms and conditions of sale remain the same, and the company remains committed to providing the high level of quality, consistency and performance customers have come to expect. Customers should contact their sales representative with any questions regarding this announcement.
