SCA Increases Kraftliner Prices

SCA Containerboard, Sundsvall, Sweden, this week announced a price increase for its unbleached kraftliner of EUR 40 per metric ton in continental Europe and £ 35 per ton in the U.K. The increase becomes effective March 1.

SCA attributes the increase to the fact that containerboard markets remained strong at the end of 2012 and in the beginning of 2013. The demand in Europe, it notes, is healthy for both unbleached kraftliner and for testliner.
