Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the cost of raw materials has risen sharply and the supply chain has been overstretched, making the entire printing and copying consumables industry face enormous challenges. The costs of product manufacturing, purchasing materials, and logistics continued to rise. Multiple factors such as the instability of transportation have led to the continuous sharp rise of other costs, which has also caused great pressure and impact on various industries.
Since the second half of 2021, due to the pressure of goods preparation and turnover costs, many manufacturers of toner drum finished products have issued price adjustment letters. They said that recently, the color drum series Dr, PCR, Sr, chips, and various auxiliary materials are facing a new round of price adjustment with an increase of 15% – 60%. Several finished product manufacturers who issued the price adjustment letter said that this price adjustment is a decision made according to the market situation. Under the cost pressure, they ensure that low-quality products are not used to pretend to be high-quality products, do not reduce the product quality on the grounds of cost reduction, and continue to improve high-quality products and services.
The core parts affect the finished selenium drum, and the price of relevant products is also affected, which fluctuates accordingly. Due to the impact of the environment, the printing and copying consumables industry is bound to face the challenges of price rise and supply shortage. In the price adjustment letter, manufacturers mentioned that the price adjustment is to provide high-quality products as always. They believe that as long as the supply chain is stable, the industry can be stable and enterprises can develop. Ensure the continuous and stable market supply and promote the healthy development of the market.
