URGENT 2024 updates

We have been advised that Eastman PVB (all grades) is being discontinued completely at the end of 2024.  We will continue to supply this material as long as we have stock but will be unable to restock ... period.

Update 9/30/2024: We were able to order some PVB before new orders were shut off earlier this month...but at a premium price.  New pricing is already reflected on this site.
As of 4:36pm Eastern Time (GMT-4:00) on this date, our stock stands as this:
B-76: 125 pounds nominal
B-98: 26 pounds nominal, with 270 pounds additional confirmed but not yet on site.
B-79: sold out, with 270 pounds additional confirmed and also sold out.
We will continue to supply all materials on a first come (accepted order) , first served basis...so current stock may vary if someone beat you to it.

We have very similar (not the same) products in house in small quantity for testing and validation from a different manufacturer, but have not finalized relationship with the new manufacturer...keep checking in, we hope to have them available shortly.  Once available, we expect the pricing to return to historic levels (~$35-45 per pound).

Remember:
If you are shopping from the EU, Asia or that general locale... please be aware that we have launched a satellite company in the UK to help with the high cost of parcel shipping.
