Lecta to increase prices for all its 2-side CWF paper grades in Europe

Lecta announced that it will increase the prices of all its 2-side CWF (coated woodfree) grades of paper in sheets and reels by 8% to 9% in Europe, effective with the deliveries from 13 March 2017.

Lecta said, “The price movement is unavoidable to offset rising manufacturing costs, particularly energy, pulp, latex and other raw materials.”

“The price increase will also be applied in export markets according to product format and on a country by country basis,” Lecta added.

Lecta noted that its sales teams are available if customers need specific information on how the price increase will be applied in each market.
