Agfa announces a worldwide price increase on all IdeaLINE phototooling films and chemistry used for the production of Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) and metal structuring applications.
The price will be increased by double digit %, which differs by regions and products, and is needed because of the steep cost increase of production (energy and labor), raw materials and logistics. Agfa has continuously searched for improvement actions to offset these important cost increases, but as inflationary pressure remains, passing on part of them to our customers becomes unavoidable.
The new pricing will apply with immediate effect taking into account the purchase conditions of each individual customer.
