DuPont said Friday its Titanium Technologies unit will raise prices in the Middle East and Africa for Ti-Pure titanium dioxide grades in a move to counter higher raw material, energy and fuel costs.
Effective Oct. 1, titanium dioxide grades will increase $150 per ton, the company said.
The announcement comes a day after DuPont raised titanium prices in Asia.
Titanium dioxide is used by the coatings, paper and plastics industries.
DuPont shares rose 44 cents to $48.33 in morning trading. – Associated Press
