Temporary RAM surcharge for Memory cards for the 1200/1500 series

This item is automatically added to relevant products; there is no need to order it separately.

Due to the unexpected and short‑term allocation situation, we are required to introduce a temporary surcharge for memory cards for the 1200/1500 series starting March 16, 2026.

Reasons for the price adjustment:
As you may already know from media reports or from your own observations, the NAND flash memory market is currently facing an exceptional situation.

Global demand has increased sharply, driven in particular by AI applications, data centers and high‑performance infrastructures. This is leading to significant price increases at major manufacturers. At the same time, production capacities have been reduced in recent years, which further limits availability.

Future price trends are difficult to predict and currently change from day to day. For this reason, our purchase prices can only be confirmed at the time of delivery for open orders. With only four major manufacturers producing these flash memories, and with their main focus now on the AI mass market, the industrial sector is currently being underserved.

Our actions:
We are in close contact with our suppliers to keep the impact as low as possible.
It is important for us to emphasize that this surcharge is temporary and will be removed as soon as the market stabilizes and purchase prices return to a normal level.

Transparency and partnership are very important to us. We are happy to explain the situation in more detail or discuss possible solutions for ongoing projects.
