Sappi Europe will implement a price increase of 7% to 8% on coated and uncoated premier Fusion Liner board, effective 1 April 2026. This initial correction is a step towards restoring economic sustainability and to support ongoing investment in innovation, product development, and supply reliability.
In recent years extensive internal cost and efficiency initiatives, including organisational restructuring and operational optimisation were implemented. Despite these actions, continued price erosion has created a widening gap between structural costs and the pricing levels required to maintain a sustainable and reliable supply.
“This adjustment reinforces our commitment to providing dependable, high-quality liner board solutions and customers will be contacted directly by the sales organisation regarding implementation details to ensure a smooth transition,” said the company in a statement. “Sappi Europe remains committed to customers, supply chain partners and brand owners and deeply values their ongoing support and understanding.”
