Effective May 1, 2019, Birla Carbon will increase base prices for all carbon black markets in North America by $170/MT.  All shipments made on or after this date are subject to the price increase.  Adjustments for customers with supply agreements will be implemented as agreements are renewed.

This increase is made necessary by capital requirements and increased operating cost associated with meeting emission limits in the U.S. and the increasing cost of compliance elsewhere in North America.
