Tokyo, April 7, 2026 --- Teijin Frontier Co., Ltd. announced today that its pricing for polyester fibers will increase as follows.

The recent deterioration in the Middle East has disrupted global crude oil supplies, leading to price surges in crude oil and petrochemical products. This has significantly impacted on the costs of raw materials, energy, logistics, and other inputs for polyester fibers. Moreover, this, coupled with higher production labor costs, has significantly increased Teijin Frontier’s product costs.

Against this backdrop, Teijin Frontier has strived to maintain its sales prices by making production more efficient and cutting expenses. However, as these rapid cost increases exceed what the company can offset through its efforts to streamline, the company has decided to implement emergency sales price revisions to ensure stable product supplies.

Going forward, Teijin Frontier will continue to comprehensively consider not only market trends of key raw materials but also trends of auxiliary material prices such as packaging materials and logistics costs and will gradually implement price increases.

 　・Polyester fibers and spun yarns: 20% or higher
 　・Nonwoven fabrics: 20% or higher 
 　・Textiles: 15% to 25%
