Celanese Implementing Sales Control Measures for Polyacetal (POM) Product Deliveries

Celanese Corporation (NYSE:CE), a global specialty materials company, announced it is implementing sales control measures in the European, Americas and Asia regions for its polyoxymethylene (POM) engineered materials product, including all grades and specifications.

Factors impacting the company’s ability to meet POM product demand include:

• Rhine river levels are at the lowest on record, restricting the supply of key raw materials into the company’s Industriepark Höchst (IPH) facility in Frankfurt, Germany, the largest POM unit in the world.
• A series of required turnarounds at Celanese-owned and co-supplier POM units.

While any existing placed order is acknowledged, future POM orders could be subject to adjustment or denial. Customers should contact their sales representative for more information.
