The Navigator Company is increasing prices in all markets by 8%, with an additional €50/tonne surcharge due to the “unprecedented increase in all relevant production cost factors”. Lecta said the surcharges will be subject to review each month “in accordance with the relevant energy prices of the immediately prior month”. The firm also said that new quotations will be “subject to the addition of surcharges due to the uncontrollable and unforeseeable increasing prices of gas and electricity”. “This price increase is essential in order to offset the exceptional increase in raw materials driven by the soaring price of gas, electricity and chemical costs,” Lecta stated. The continental paper maker said its cost structure had suffered a significant and unsustainable hit, and the increases had to be passed on. The same increase applies for its Speciality paper grades for thermal, carbonless, labels and flexible packaging Lecta has also announced a price increase of 12%-14% on all its coated woodfree grades in sheets and reels for all new orders. “Sappi understands that circumstances are extremely challenging and remain committed to managing its business, supporting the industry and serving customers during this difficult period.”
