Increasing input costs like raw materials and transportation have had a strong negative impact on the profitability of Arctic Paper, as well as of most paper producers. Arctic Paper now announces a price increase on all UWF and CWF 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, and for all deliveries from March 20.
