MACON, GA – KaMin and CADAM today announced a price increase of up to 9.5% on their kaolin products depending on specific grades and regions, effective December 1, 2026.
The companies continue to face broad inflationary pressures across mining, purchased raw materials, and labor. As with all companies, significant increases in energy costs continue to affect our business. Disruptions in key maritime routes, extended shipping times, higher fuel prices, and increased insurance premiums have also placed additional pressure on freight-related costs impacting final delivered costs.
KaMin and CADAM remain focused on efficiency improvements and cost-control initiatives to help offset rising mining, energy, chemical, logistics, environmental, and regulatory costs. However, inflationary market pressures continue to exceed these savings, making this price adjustment necessary to sustain product quality, supply reliability, and long-term customer support.
Customers will be contacted directly with details of their price adjustments, including any specific logistics or handling costs, which may require additional increases and/or applicable surcharges. For additional information, please contact your local business manager or email askus@kamin.com.
