Retardant

    BEER-SHEVA, Israel, March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ICL Industrial

Fyrol(R) PCF (tris(2-chloroisopropyl) phosphate) by 15 percent. The price
increase will take effect in all territories from April 1, 2008, subject to
existing contracts.
    ICL Industrial Products manufactures Fyrol(R) PCF flame retardant and
provides technical market support for its application in rigid and flexible
polyurethane foam applications.
    The price increase is necessary due to escalating energy and raw material
costs.

segments. It produces bromine, magnesia and chlorine from Dead Sea brines,
