Specialty chemicals company LANXESS will globally increase its basic prices for all Lewatit ion exchange resins and Bayoxide iron oxide adsorbers for water treatment applications by approximately 10%. The price increase will be valid for all orders starting January 1, 2023. Customers will be informed individually.

The monthly variable surcharge introduced in the second quarter of 2022 will be retained and adjusted monthly on the basis of key input costs. It is intended to compensate for the drastic cost increases in raw materials, energy and transportation. The measures take account of the continuing high volatility in the markets.

The LANXESS Liquid Purification Technologies business unit is one of the world’s leading global solution providers for water treatment and liquid purification. Ion exchange resins and iron oxide adsorbers are used in numerous industries and applications to purify water and other liquid media effectively.
