June 14th, 2021
The Cultured Marble industry finds itself under extreme pressure with rapidly rising raw material costs. Maunfacturers such as MPL are tasked with keeping our operational costs under control while global shortages of raw materials, especially resin and lumber, affect our manufacturing flow.
As we continue to experience increases, our ability to control costs through continuous improvement and efficiencies has been outpaced, leading to some material shortages and extended lead times. Though we work tirelessly to keep these issues from affecting you and your customer, MPL is not immune to these challenges or the escalation of operating costs they create – currently felt across all industries. Therefore, as we strive to provide you with industry-leading quality and service, we must take the following pricing action:
Effective July 15th the following price increases will take effect for all shipments and orders:
- Standard Cultured Marble Panels by 4.6%
- Class A Fire Rated Cultured Marble Panels by 8.3%
- Shower Pans by up to 5.6% depending on size
- Accessories by 4.5% on average
Crating Upcharge will increase to 8.3% on average
These are unprecedented times, but with partners like you by our side, we have met the challenges together with resilience. MPL believes that “your success is our success.” We are truly grateful for your loyalty. Our customer-focused staff and sales representatives are at the ready to assist you with questions and address your concern as we look forward to brighter days, together.
