Sappi Europe announces price rises for its Coated Mechanical Reel products

Due to continuing high cost and volatility in raw materials, energy and transportation Sappi Europe has announced a price increase to its Coated Mechanical reels. The adjustment will range between 6-9% and will be implemented during the month of October.

Sappi’s European sales team will be in further contact directly with customers to discuss the details of the implementation.

The business climate remains extremely challenging for everyone, and Sappi appreciates all its customers support in these difficult times.
