Lecta, Spain, has announced a price increase for its thermal paper orders, effective mid-May, 2017. The increase will range from 6% to 7%.

The price increase is necessary to offset rising manufacturing costs, particularly energy, pulp, latex, and other raw materials, Lecta noted. "Lecta sales teams are at our customers' disposal to provide specific information on how the price increase will be applied on a country by country basis," the company stated in a release.
