Ahlstrom, Finland, this week announced price increases on its masking tape materials produced by the company’s Food and Medical business area. The price increases will be made to compensate for the continued high costs of raw materials in euro terms.
The price increases will affect all masking tape products manufactured globally and will become effective April 1. The increase will be up to 7%, depending on markets as well as the product and the agreements in place. Specific details will be discussed with each customer individually by the appropriate sales teams in the near term future.
Ahlstrom’s masking tape products are produced in France, China, and Finland. Food and Medical business area's end-use applications include teabags, coffee pods, and capsules, food packaging, baking papers, masking tape, surgical gowns and drapes, and sterile barrier systems.
