AOC Announces Price Increase for Mexico

April, 2010 : Collierville, TN

AOC, LLC announces a price increase of US$0.08 per pound for all polyester and vinyl ester resins shipped to and within Mexico.  The implementation date for the increase is May 10, 2010.

Due to supply shortages and constraints, several key raw materials used to produce unsaturated polyesters, vinyl esters, gel coats and pigments are on force majeure and supplies are being allocated.  Consequently the prices of these raw materials have increased rapidly. AOC has long standing relationships with its suppliers and is working very closely with suppliers to ensure supply through this difficult time.
