Cabot raised the global sales price of special Carbon Black
Cabot announced that it will increase the sales price of special carbon black worldwide from December 1, 2021, or from the period allowed by the contract. The price adjustment range varies according to the variety and origin. The price increase is due to the sharp rise in the procurement cost of main raw materials in various regions.
In addition, since November 1, 2021 or when the contract allows, Cabot will charge an additional energy surcharge for the special carbon black produced in Europe to cope with the unprecedented rapid rise in the cost of natural gas in the region. These two price adjustment measures help to ensure that Cabot has always been a long-term reliable supplier of high-quality products and services. In addition, it is also conducive to continue to invest in new product development and application innovation to meet customer needs.
The price adjustment of Japanese carbon black enterprises and the increase of special carbon black were higher
According to the price coordination mechanism of a carbon black company in Japan, the sales price of carbon black is reassessed every three months according to the price fluctuation in the raw oil market.

In order to continue to stabilize the supply in the future, it has decided to comprehensively adjust the sales price of carbon black varieties from November 1:
1) For all varieties of carbon black for rubber, the selling price will be increased by 6900 yen per ton (equivalent to about 390 yuan);
2) Special carbon black, RCF (ordinary pigment furnace black), with a price increase of 34000 yen per ton (equivalent to about 1920 yuan); MCF ・ LFF (medium pigment furnace black and long flow furnace black), an increase of 42000 yen per ton (equivalent to about 2370 yuan); HCF (high pigment furnace black), increased by 51000 yen per ton (equivalent to about 2870 yuan).
