Price increase by 7%

Brigl & Bergmeister, a producer of 1-side coated papers for labels- and flexible packaging will implement a further sales price increase of minimum 7% for deliveries from July 1st 2011.

This step is necessary, as previous increases were not sufficient to compensate the extraordinary high cost increases in raw materials, energy and freight. Despite very high capacity utilization, the margins of the industry have reached unacceptable low levels.
