Nordic Paper, Sweden, will increase prices for greaseproof papers by 5% beginning Sept. 1, 2017.

Business Unit Sales and Marketing Director Peter Warren said that "during the past two years, our business has endeavored to keep cost inflation to a minimum by driving internal efficiency and making targeted investments. However, we face increases over a wide range of input costs, which we have accepted to ensure supply stability. Many of these costs have been absorbed but we have to pass on some through higher market prices."
