Düsseldorf, April 28, 2026 – Envalior announces today a price increase for Caprolactam and PA6 products.

Envalior today announced a price increase for Caprolactam, Akulon® and Durethan® PA6 Base Resins, as well as PA6 Film & Extrusion and PA6 Copolymer grades in Europe, the Middle East & Africa and the Americas.

Ongoing geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties continue to challenge global supply chains and the availability of critical inputs. Over the last weeks, ensuring consistent delivery performance has required increased operational efforts and additional cost-intensive measures across the value chain.

Despite continued efforts to manage these developments and maintain stability wherever possible, prevailing market conditions make it necessary to adjust pricing in order to ensure a reliable and sustainable supply to customers.

As a result, Envalior will implement a price adjustment of + €450/t (+ US$526/t), effective immediately or as contract terms permit.

Further differentiated adjustments may apply to specific materials, depending on product requirements and market conditions.

Envalior remains committed to maintaining supply reliability and supporting its customers in navigating a challenging and dynamic market environment.
