Kemira will implement a price increase of 10-20% for all AKD (alkyl ketene dimer) wax products, effective immediately or as contracts permit. The adjustment is driven by significantly higher costs across the AKD wax value chain.

We remain a committed partner to our customers, ensuring security of supply while keeping our cost of production highly competitive and maintaining our high-quality service level.
