Germany: Another Mill Raises Coated Price

Antalis has set its sights on higher prices in Germany. The trader announced last week that it intends to raise prices for coated woodfree (CWF) sheets by 5% from May 6. Prices for all other grades are supposed to rise by 3% from the same date.
Antalis ascribed the move to rising energy and fuel prices as well as logistics and transport costs, which are impacting the price structure in the wholesale market.
