Södra, Sweden, has raised the price of its softwood pulp to $860 and hardwood pulp to $820 per metric ton in Europe, effective March 1. Seasonal improvement, together with maintenance shutdowns, will improve the market balance further in the spring, the company noted.
Södra is organized into four business areas—Södra Skog (timber raw products, forestry services), Södra Timber (wood products), Södra Cell (paper pulp), Södra Interiör (interior wood products).
