December 5, 2011

Dear Valued Customer,

The year 2011 has been marked by economic recovery and provided us with exciting new business opportunities, also it has been a year in which cost increases in raw materials and transportation have been prevalent, as you may have noticed in other areas of business.

Gravograph understands the tough economic conditions our customers are facing, we have increased efficiencies to offset or have absorbed most of the cost increases --and will continue to do so.  However, Gravograph has not been able to offset all increases in raw materials and transportation cost, making it necessary to pass a minimal increase on to our customers.  Therefore, effective January 1st, 2012 an average price increase of 3% will go into effect on our catalog prices.  In comparison, other suppliers in the industry have already increased their prices by as much as 12.5% in the past year.

Concerned with providing you with the best service at all times and counting on your understanding, we hope you will take advantage of this cost-efficient opportunity to stock up on materials prior to December 29th in order to improve your margins in 2012.
