Sekisui is committed to providing our customers with quality product meeting their needs; however, raw material prices have rapidly escalated to near all-time highs, necessitating an increase to help recover as product margins are not sustainable in the current environment. This increase will take effect March 1st, 2018, or as contracts and agreements allow.
