Increasing input costs, like raw materials and transportation, have had a strong negative impact on the profitability for paper producers. Arctic Paper has so far absorbed these increased variable costs, but the company now needs to announce a price increase on all uncoated fine paper grades, both in folio sheets and reels.The price increase will range from five to eight percent and will differ from the current price levels per country and paper grade. The price increase will be implemented for all markets from 1 April.
