Coiminks Announces EMEA Price Hike for NC-based Products

Coiminks, the business unit of Italian chemical specialities company Coim Group specialising in inks and coatings for flexible packaging, has announced a price adjustment for all nitrocellulose-containing products such as inks, varnishes, primers, and overprint varnishes in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

The sharp increase in costs and the growing global shortage of nitrocellulose have created significant pressure on the prices and availability of raw materials.

Starting 1 September 2025, Coiminks will implement a price increase, which will vary based on the nitrocellulose content of each product. Meanwhile, the company’s R&D and procurement teams are working proactively to secure alternative solutions, optimise formulations, and support converters with reliable, high-performance products.

Coim Group’s priority to ensure constant supply, while maintaining the quality and continuity of its products and evaluating possible technical alternatives, has led to these significant costs being incurred in recent months.

Since 1962, the Offanengo-headquartered multinational company has been developing and manufacturing speciality chemicals, including polyesters and polyols, polyurethanes, and speciality resins for composite materials and coatings.
