  • DOW: Force majeure on VAM

    By Tom Stundza -- Purchasing, 8/22/2007 11:06:00 AM

    Dow Chemical has declared force majeure on deliveries of vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) due to essential maintenance of critical plant equipment required at the Texas City, Texas, plant of subsidiary Union Carbide. The company says repairs have become necessary “during a period of low inventory levels at Dow and extremely tight industry supply,” will require the plant to be shut for two weeks in September. And, effective on September 3 and likely through the end of October, Dow will allocate available product to customers.
