TiO2 prices on plateaux, with Ishihara the only supplier formally posting price rises

摘要

TiO2 pigment purchasers had grown weary of hearing of price increases posted by the major multinational suppliers, usually on a quarterly basis, but sometimes more frequently. Now, it seems that the suppliers themselves have grown weary of making such announcements! The last time Kronos published a set of price increases was on 9 May 2013. Analogous dates for Tronox, Cristal, DuPont and Huntsman were: 30 May, 7 June, 19 September and 27 September 2013 respectively.
