Sekisui Specialty Chemicals Implements Global Price Hikes
Starting October 15, 2026, Sekisui Specialty Chemicals will raise prices across its entire Selvol polyvinyl alcohol portfolio, citing shifts in market conditions. The adjustments affect core product lines including Selvol Ultiloc, Ultalux, and Premiol, with increases reaching $220 per metric ton in most international regions and 200 euros in EMEA.
The company confirmed that the pricing updates apply to its high-performance polymers and copolymers utilized extensively across the construction, adhesive, and personal care sectors. While the standard increase for North America, Latin America, and Asia is set at $220/mt, the firm noted that specific implementation dates remain subject to existing contractual obligations and individual client agreements.
Sekisui, a subsidiary of the multibillion-dollar Sekisui Chemical Group, continues to lean on its Selvol Ultiloc line as a primary driver of innovation within its specialty chemical portfolio. Clients currently sourcing these materials are advised to coordinate directly with local sales representatives to determine how these adjustments will integrate into their specific supply chain agreements moving forward.
