ERJ staff report (DS)
New York -- Asia Carbon Industries, Inc. has reported sales for the year ended December 31, 2010 up by 44 percent, at $29.7 million (euro 21.5 million), compared to $20,648,686 a year previously.

The increase in revenue was also impacted by an increase in the Company's carbon black unit selling price, which was driven by increased raw material price.
