Sekisui Chemical Co., Ltd. has decided to revise the sales prices of its chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) resin and CPVC compound products, which it manufactures and sells. This decision comes as various costs, primarily material prices, have sharply increased in a short period due to the recent Iran conflict, making it extremely difficult to resolve the situation through self-help efforts. This revision is aimed at ensuring stable supply in the future. There is a possibility that additional price revisions may be necessary depending on future related circumstances. We ask for the understanding of our customers regarding the urgent situation surrounding our company and for their approval of the price increase.
