Södra Raises Price of Softwood Pulp in Europe

Södra, Sweden, has raised the price of its softwood pulp to $890 per metric ton in Europe. According to Södra, the market balance has been improved during the first quarter 2013, which has resulted in lower global market pulp stock levels for softwood pulp.

Södra’s four business areas produce sawn and planed timber goods, interior products, paper pulp, and biofuel. In recent years, the company has also become such a large producer of electricity that it now produces more electricity than it uses.
