Gorham Announces Price Increases

To offset rising raw material and energy costs, Gorham Paper and Tissue announced today a $50/ton price increase for Packaging and Lightweight printing grades effective with July 15th shipments.
Since the fall, Gorham has experienced double digit price increases in the areas of pulp, PCW, natural gas and power. The costs increases are too great for the company to offset through productivity improvements and cost savings programs.
