Last update on Mar 26, 2026
Sun Chemical will implement price increases and surcharges across all its product divisions, effective immediately.
These adjustments result from ongoing geopolitical developments in the Middle East, notably the situation involving Iran, which are significantly impacting global energy markets, logistics routes, and chemical feedstock availability.

Company is experiencing:
Steep raw materials and intermediates price increases driven by volatility and availability in oil and gas supply
Higher transportation, logistics and insurance costs, particularly for shipments through critical trade routes
Longer lead times caused by disruptions in supply chains, affecting availability and reliability
- Higher energy costs, and significantly higher in certain regions
Sun Chemical is in close contact with suppliers and service providers to identify product production risks and to assess how to mitigate cost increases to the greatest extent possible. Despite continuous efforts, the cumulative increases of costs, fees, and expenses, caused by the aforementioned factors outside the company’s control, necessitate price increases and surcharges to safeguard supply continuity and maintain quality and service standards.
The company will communicate specific price increases and surcharge information directly to customers and provide updates as the situation in the Middle East evolves.
