November 11, 2026 | 2 min to read
Corbion today announced a global price increase for lactic acid and lactates, effective immediately or as permitted by existing contracts.
The increase reflects continued rises in key input and manufacturing costs, compounded by ongoing volatility in global supply chains.
Corbion continues to mitigate these pressures through productivity improvements, operational efficiencies and disciplined cost management. The price increase reflects the remaining impact of sustained cost increases.

Our teams will work closely with customers on implementation.”
The increase will vary by product, region and contractual arrangements. Corbion account managers will contact customers directly to discuss the implementation applicable to their businesses.
Corbion remains committed to providing customers with reliable supply, consistent product quality, and strong technical and commercial support.
