Brazil's pulp producer Suzano has announced a new price increase for May. The company is asking for a $80/t price hike for deliveries of bleached eucalyptus kraft (BEK) pulp on the Europen market, according to Euwid. The announcement comes at a time when the increase requested for April is still being negotiated across Europe.

 

Suzano is world's largest producer of short-fibre pulp.
