WEBWIRE

Ahlstrom, a global leader in high performance materials, announces price increases in the first quarter of 2013 for its filtration materials globally as a consequence of the continued high level of raw materials prices, such as specialty fibers, chemicals and energy.

The price increase will affect filtration materials produced by Ahlstrom globally. The level and timing of the increase will depend on the markets served, the raw material content of the product and the agreements in place. The increase will be between 5-10 %. Specific details will be discussed with each customer individually by the appropriate sales teams in the coming days.
