HONG KONG -- Dow Epoxy will raise prices of its epoxy resins, including standard brominated epoxy resins next month, the company's second price hike in two months.

Effective February 1, 2010 or as contract terms allow, rhe company will raise prices by US$200 per metric ton in Asia Pacific, and by ¥20 per kilogram in Japan. This is in addition to the price increases announced in December last year, which company says is due to "ongoing margin restoration in response to continued escalating raw materials cost."

The price increases affect liquid, solid, solid solution epoxy resins and and other epoxy products (including specialty epoxy resins).
