Caraustar Raises Price on All Paper Tube, Core Products

Caraustar Industries Inc., Atlanta, Ga., USA, this week announced a price increase of 5% on all paper tube and core product lines. The increase, effective with shipments beginning August 1, is primarily in response to increases in recycled paperboard prices and other external costs, the company notes.

Caraustar is one of North America's largest integrated manufacturers of 100% recycled paperboard and converted paperboard products. It serves the four principal recycled boxboard product end-use markets: tubes and cores; folding cartons; gypsum facing paper; and specialty paperboard products.
