Kuraray announced its decision to revise the price of GENESTAR™ heat-resistant polyamide resin for domestic and overseas shipments on or after May 10, 2021.

Increasing feedstock prices and logistics costs have reached to the level beyond unilaterally absorbable by self-saving efforts. This time, it is necessary to recover a portion of these increases to ensure ongoing supply and new product development.

1.Scope of revision GENESTAR™
2.Price increase Japan: \60/kg
Overseas: US$ 0.60/kg
3.Effective date Shipments on or after May 10, 2021
