Like many manufacturers across our industry, Flextech is currently seeing broad-based price increase notifications from the majority of our suppliers. These increases are impacting key materials we use every day, including foams, adhesives, fabrics, and other critical raw materials.
Much of this price pressure is being driven by ongoing disruptions in global supply chains, including instability in the Middle East and its impact on petroleum-based inputs and energy-linked commodities. As many of these materials are petroleum-based or closely linked to global energy markets, the impact is both broad and difficult to avoid.
At Flextech, our priority is to manage these pressures proactively and transparently while minimizing the impact to our customers wherever possible. While we do foresee that pricing adjustments will be necessary, we are actively working with our supplier network to challenge increases, identify alternatives if possible, and delay or reduce these increases wherever we can.
Our focus remains on what we can control:
• Maintaining transparency and clear communication with our customers
• Strategically managing sourcing, inventory, and material alternatives
• Preserving the quality, consistency, and reliability you expect from Flextech
• Working directly with suppliers to mitigate cost increases before they reach our customers
We recognize that cost volatility creates challenges across the supply chain, and we are committed to navigating this environment in a way that prioritizes long-term partnerships over short-term reactions.
If you have questions about specific materials or programs, please don’t hesitate to reach out, we’re here to work through this with you.
