Strong global demand for polyester staple, driven by a global shortfall of cotton supply has escalated the cost of basic polyester raw materials.

In response to these market dynamics, DAK Americas will increase prices for all Polyester Staple Fiber (PSF) products. Effective November 1, 2010 DAK Americas will increase PSF prices by $0.09 per pound.

DAK is committed to the staple fibers business and will continue to supply quality products, services and innovation to its customers.
