Quadrant Engineering Plastic Products announces that it will increase its prices for cast and extruded PA and POM stock shapes.

Quadrant Engineering Plastic Products announced that it will increase its prices for cast and extruded PA and POM stock shapes. An increase of 2% on the prices as published in the 'Quadrant European Market Price List' will become effective for shipments on and after June 1, 2004. These measures are being taken in response to the continuous decrease in margins as a result of increased raw material prices (Caprolactam, PA, POM) and the increased costs of labour, energy and transportation.

Quadrant EPP continues to work hard to improve productivity and reduce costs, nevertheless these efforts are inadequate to overcome the current cost pressures.

Quadrant Engineering Plastic Products is the world leader in the manufacture of engineering plastics in stock shapes (rod, plate, tube) for machining.

Quadrant EPP also produces custom nylon castings and finished components.

Quadrant EPP`s General and Advanced Engineering Plastics portfolio includes the broadest range of standard and custom shapes for machining and is available through its worldwide operations, technical support centres and authorized distributors.
