Said Mohni, “The basic chemical infrastructure behind the adhesive and films in our sector is based on natural gas. U.S. natural gas pricing per thousand cubic feet has nearly doubled since 2000.” While petroleum-based products, such as polyester and vinyls, are among those most affected, costs of acrylates--the main components in adhesive products--have risen 18 percent to 30 percent since December 2005, according to Mohni. Another affected component in overlaminate and adhesive products is paper-based release liner. “Domestic pulp paper pricing is up 18 percent year on year through November of 2006,” she said.
