Citing "significant cost increases" in fuel and raw materials, Mannington Mills has raising wholesale prices on its commercial sheet vinyl and VCT products by between 5 to 8 percent. The move follows similar increases from other major suppliers who also attributed their increases to rising costs.

"We continue to experience increases in our raw material, energy and transportation costs," said Jack Ganley, president of commercial business for Mannington. "Unfortunately, these significant cost increases necessitate a further price increase in the market."
