U.S. kraft paper List prices in December remained flat for all kraft paper grades, according to Wilde. In August, trade papers had reported a $30 - $40/ton increase in kraft paper prices, he adds. Extensible sack kraft prices rose $30/ton in August (July = +$30/ton), essentially completing the $60/ton price increase. Multiwall kraft producers implemented a full $40/ton price hike in August. On the sack grades, producers implemented $40/ton of the announced $60/ton price increase in August. The price increases are driven by tight supplies and improved demand, according to Wilde.
