The bulletin, sent to NAPIM's members, reviewed the availability of critical raw materials likely used in the inks that printers purchase in all of the major printing processes: lithographic, gravure, flexographic and inkjet.
Availability, driven by capacity and demand from competing regions and industries, remains the determinant on how much product any one manufacturer can obtain and at what cost. Some of the key raw materials causing price increases include: rosin, acrylic acid, carbon black, titanium dioxide, nitrocellulose, crude oil and natural gas, vegetable oils, and colored organic pigments.
