Greater uncertainty about the price of pulp

January 12, 2012 by timbercommunity

Since Stora Enso announced an increase in NBSK prices to 850 dollars per tonne by the end of December, at least four other producers followed but not the Swedish pulp giant Södra.

In addition, there is an increase in the price of the dollar against the euro, to levels close to their highest in 18 months. The raw materials are priced in dollars and when the currency increases, the cost for European buyers increase.
