Graphic Packaging has informed customers it will increase prices on all its solid unbleached sulfate (SUS) paperboard, also called coated unbleached kraft (CUK), by $50/ton effective with shipments on or after Sept. 1, according to industry sources.
The increase applies to Graphic Packaging's Omni-Kote, Pearl-Kote and Aqua-Kote SUS grades.
MeadWestvaco last week set a $50 price increase on its coated natural kraft (CNK) also called CUK effective Sept. 1.
