Wellman Inc has announced that, effective with July 16th 2006 shipments, it will increase the price of all chemical-based Fortrel polyester staple fiber products by 4 cents/lb.

Joe Tucker, Vice President, Fibers and Recycled Products Group, made the announcement noting, "This price increase is made necessary by the continued escalation in the cost of our petrochemical-based raw materials and their feedstocks."

Wellman remains committed to providing the high level of quality products and support services that our customers have come to expect.

Wellman Inc manufactures and markets high-quality polyester products, including Fortrel brand polyester fibers and PermaClear and EcoClear brand PET (polyethylene terephthalate) packaging resins.
