“The peroxide market has been at its lowest since the recession a few years ago,” Nichlas Kavander, Vice President Sales, Paper, region EMEA, told Tissue World. "The price level was not sustainable with the impact of raw material costs and the effects of the recession. So it has been necessary to adjust the pricing in order to compensate.”Kavander added that the main reasons for the price increases were rising energy costs, especially oil, as well as natural gas increases and logistics costs.It is the first increase made by the company for hydrogen peroxide this year. The last time the company made an increase was October 2010. /AA
