Ahlstrom to Increase Graphics and Packaging Product Prices

Ahlstrom, Finland, will increase prices of its graphics and packaging products worldwide, effective July 1. The increases will vary up to 10%, depending on products and markets. The company attributes the increase to rising costs of raw material, chemicals, and energy. Ahlstrom's graphics and packaging products are part of the Label and Processing Business Area and their end-use applications include metalized wet glue labels, flexible packaging, envelope windows and repositionable notes.
