Notice of 国际米兰中文官网 Prices Revision

October 24, 2014

国际米兰中文官网 Co., Ltd. Electric Conductor Division will revise the selling prices of copper wire products as follows

Applicable products: The price revision applies to all types of 国际米兰中文官网 products (国际米兰中文官网 rods, copper drawn wire)
Rate of increase: 5 yen/kg
Effective Date The new price will be effective from the deliveries on November 1, 2014
Reason for revision:

The product cost has continued to rise due to increase of energy costs such as electricity rates and fuel costs especially since the Great East Japan Earthquake Disaster. In addition, the rise in fuel prices leads to increases in transportation costs, and together with shortage of labor and transportation vehicle in the logistics industry, it is forced to approve increase of transportation vehicle procurement costs in order to ensure stable distribution.
国际米兰中文官网 has been building up efforts to improve costs through a variety of measures to improve productivity, including consolidation of production sites, but it is difficult to absorb all of the cost increases solely through our own efforts. Accordingly, 国际米兰中文官网 concluded that we have to pass some of the cost increase on to product prices.

国际米兰中文官网 certainly does not wish to inconvenience any of our valued customers who use the products concerned, and 国际米兰中文官网 would be most grateful for your understanding in light of these circumstances.
