DuPont Engineering Polymers (www.dupont.com) announces price increases for its thermoplastic resins in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), to be effective on November 1, 2008 or as contracts allow.

• The price of DuPont™ Delrin® acetal resin will increase by 0.10 Euro/kg.

• DuPont™ Zytel® HTN high-performance polyamide and DuPont™ Rynite® PET thermoplastic polyester resins will increase by 0.20 Euro/kg.
• The price of DuPont™ Zytel® polyamide resins and DuPont™ Minlon® polyamide resins will increase by 0.30 Euro/kg.
• DuPont™ Zenite® LCP will increase by 1.00 Euro/kg.
• Specialty grades and colours in all thermoplastic product families may increase by a larger amount. Specifically, Zytel®, Crastin® and Rynite® “FR” (flame retardant) grades will increase by 0.70 Euro/kg.

The increases are based on continued escalation of raw materials, transportation and logistics costs and are in addition to the increases announced in June 2008. DuPont strives continuously to offset these escalating costs with productivity programs and other containment measures, however their magnitude makes this additional round of price increases inevitable.

DuPont de Nemours (Deutschland) GmbH, Neu-Isenburg, Germany
