Kuraray Co., Ltd. has announced a global price increase for its GENESTAR heat-resistant polyamide resin, set to take effect from 1 April 2026. This decision is driven by sustained escalations in logistics, labour and facility maintenance expenses that can no longer be offset through internal cost-saving measures. The adjustment is considered necessary to secure ongoing product availability and uphold quality standards. The price will rise by a minimum of 10 percent across the board.

This material is extensively utilised in the automotive sector, particularly in engine compartments and thermal management systems for components like thermostat housings and coolant parts. Its strong fuel barrier properties also make it a preferred choice for fuel system tubing. Furthermore, its mechanical strength and wear resistance support its use in gear systems and bearings, while its high-voltage insulation capabilities are increasingly critical for various electric vehicle applications.

HS HYOSUNG ADVANCED MATERIALS has taken part in JEC World 2026, the premier global composites exhibition, held from 10 to 12 March 2026 at the Paris Nord Villepinte Convention Center in Paris, France. The company’s participation focuses on its advanced carbon fibre-based composite technologies, applicable in the automotive sector, alongside other key industries such as aerospace, construction and renewable energy.

Having consistently attended this prestigious event since 2013, the company is using this year’s platform to showcase innovations that cater to both high-performance and large-scale industrial needs. A central part of its display includes high-strength 3K carbon fibre, notable for its enhanced tensile strength, making it suitable for demanding applications in automotive components, drones, aviation and civil engineering. To address the requirements of broader industrial markets, the company is also featuring its 48K Large Tow carbon fibre, designed for use in wind power and the automotive industry.

At its exhibition booth, HS HYOSUNG ADVANCED MATERIALS is demonstrating the practical versatility of its materials by displaying finished products such as drones and high-pressure hydrogen storage tanks, both manufactured using its carbon fibre. This approach underscores the material’s critical role in lightweighting and high-strength applications, including the growing field of hydrogen mobility.

Carbon fibre, which is both a quarter of the weight of steel and significantly stronger, is seeing rising demand for pressure vessels, automotive parts and wind turbine blades. As the first Korean company to domestically develop high-strength carbon fibre under the TANSOME brand in 2010, HS HYOSUNG has been operating its Jeonju plant since 2013 and is now expanding its production capabilities into China and Vietnam. Building on this foundation, the company aims to solidify its status as a global leader, particularly following its 2022 development of H3065, an ultra-high-strength carbon fibre over 14 times stronger than steel, intended for advanced aerospace and automotive sectors.

Jim Dal Lim, CEO, HS HYOSUNG ADVANCED MATERIALS, said, “JEC World 2026 is an ideal platform to showcase our outstanding technologies to a global audience and discover future collaboration partners. Through this exhibition, we will expand cooperation with global customers and actively explore new business opportunities in the composites market.”

Advent HoldCo has confirmed it will not acquire the LANXESS stake in the ENVALIOR joint venture in 2026. This follows a tender submitted by LANXESS in September 2025. Advent cited financing conditions as the reason for the decision.

The tender and purchase periods for the shares in 2027 and 2028 remain in effect. LANXESS will continue its role in the joint venture. The company attributes the development of ENVALIOR to market recovery within the sector, synergies between the companies and consolidation among competitors.

LANXESS stated it remains financed despite the absence of sale proceeds in 2026. The company maintains a cash position and credit lines totalling more than EUR 1.35 billion. Repayment of the bond maturing in October 2026 is secured.

The company stated that it maintains access to debt capital markets and debt reduction remains its top priority.
