The Pigments division of Huntsman Corporation announced that it will increase prices of all TIOXIDE titanium dioxide pigments sold in Africa, Latin America and the Middle East by $200 per metric ton (USD) effective from 1st of September 2008 or as applicable contracts allow.

Despite efficiency improvements and ongoing cost reduction programmes, Huntsman said that the price increases are necessary to address the significant increases in costs of primary input chemicals, energy and freight affecting our industry.
