ST. PAUL, Minn., Jan. 16, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- H.B. Fuller Company (NYSE:FUL) announced today that, effective immediately or as contracts allow, the North America Adhesives group of H.B. Fuller will increase the price for adhesives between 5 percent and 15 percent, depending on the product sold.
These increases affect products sold for the following applications in the U.S. and Canada, including but not limited to: packaging, paper converting, flexible packaging, specialty coatings, construction and assembly products, hygiene, window, glass fiber and textile. The increase is necessitated because of strong global demand, tight raw material supply, and rising freight costs, all of which were exacerbated by Hurricane Harvey.
