Alteo to increase alumina products’ prices

The French calcined alumina and ATH producer will raise its products’ prices at the end of Q3, citing increasing raw material costs as the reason.

Alteo will be increasing its speciality alumina products prices due to rising raw material costs with effect from 1 September, the France-based company said.

"Alumina production has suffered over the past months from significant cost increases which cannot be absorbed anymore," said Alteo on 13 July.
