Polyiso Pricing Increase Notification

Rising Energy Costs – Pricing

  • Political uncertainty in the Middle East and North Africa
  • Increasing demand for oil and petro-chemicals as North America and other global economies emerge from recessions
  • Reduction in transport tankers for Middle East and North African oil
  • No increase in the volume of easy access oil deposits

These are only a few of the reasons that oil pricing has been rapidly increasing recently and may continue to do so for some time to come. The chemical feed stocks used in the manufacture of raw materials for our insulations are all oil derivatives. As oil pricing escalates so does the cost of these raw materials. These increases have been predictable and fairly reasonable until recently, when both the frequency and percentage of each increase reached levels that are higher than we can continue to absorb.

Consequently Atlas has notified our customers that the price of our insulations will be increased in April and again in May. Please contact your local distributors to review existing quotes and confirm availability of product. Atlas will continue to communicate additional price changes to our customers as necessary, and we will handle any availability issues in a responsible manner.

Thank you for your continued support.
