Calabrian Announces SO2 Price Increase
(firmenpresse) - HOUSTON, TX -- (Marketwired) -- 09/25/14 -- Calabrian Corporation, the largest prime producer of liquid sulfur dioxide and related derivatives in North America, announced that effective Oct. 15, or when permissible by contract, it will increase the price of sulfur dioxide by $100 per short ton. The increase is reflective of the sulfur dioxide market, which has tightened considerably, as a result of strong demand and reduced availability of byproduct material.
"This price increase will support our continued investment in our SO2 and derivatives business," said Jeffrey Hammerstrom, director of business development. "Our expansion of SO2 production will enable Calabrian to provide our customers with a reliable, on purpose, source of sulfur dioxide to meet their needs and allow Calabrian to strengthen its market leading position in SO2, sodium metabisulfite, and other sulfur derivatives."
In July, Calabrian announced plans to expand production of SO2 at its Port Neches, Texas, plant. The multimillion-dollar expansion, using the company''s proprietary SO2Clean technology, is expected to be online by the end of the year.
