Special Materials Company is set to increase the price of para-chlorobenzotrifluoride by 10% across all grades and packages.
The move follows changes in market conditions for raw materials and currency exchange challenges.
The company added that environmental issues had caused production challenges and that there had been unexpected strong demand for the chemical from the agricultural market.
Compliance solutions product manager Diane Tramontana said that the company remains committed to supplying quality para-chlorobenzotrifluoride and maintaining sufficient US-based inventory to meet the market demand.
