01 Oct 2010 • by Natalie Aster

Effective October 1, 2009, or as existing contracts permit, BASF SE will increase its European selling prices for the following products:

• 1,4 Butanediol (BDO) +150 EUR/mt
• Tetrahydrofuran (THF) +100 EUR/mt
• Polytetramethylene ether glycol (PolyTHF®) +100 EUR/mt
• N-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidone (NMP) +100 EUR/mt
• Gamma Butyrolactone (GBL) +100 EUR/mt

According to BASF, the price adjustment is related to unsatisfactory margins and is necessary to ensure that BASF can continue to offer quality products and services to its customers.
