Due to a drastic increase of raw material costs, particularly pulp, Cham Paper Group, Switzerland, reports that it will have to raise prices for its Consumer Goods and Industrial Release papers by 5% to 8%. The price increase applies as per invoice date beginning May 1, and will vary depending on the grade and the region. Within the next days, the company’s customers will be informed personally by Cham Paper’s sales managers.
The Cham Paper Group is a producer of coated specialty papers. Its grades have surface coatings that give them functionalities with added value for customers. The company was founded in 1657 and has three sites, one in Switzerland (Cham) and two in Italy (Carmignano and Con-dino), as well as operating a global distribution network.
The decision to focus on development and distribution activities and to withdraw from paper production in Switzerland has created new space at the factory site in the center of Cham. The Cham Paper Group is developing an 11-hectare area there, the Papieri-Areal.
