PaperWorks Raises Coated Recycled Paperboard Prices

PaperWorks Industries (PWI), Philadelphia, Pa., USA, this week announced price increases on all grades of its coated recycled paperboard by $40 per ton, effective August 9. The increases apply to all North American customers and will include all MasterWorks CRB grades, including the News, Plus, Blister, Freeze, Lite, and Beverage grades. PWI says it will continue to minimize these increases with ongoing cost savings initiatives.

PWI’s Paperboard Division manufactures approximately 300,000 tons of 100% recycled paperboard annually, and its Packaging Division operates specialized folding carton facilities in the U.S. and Canada. With more than 1,000 employees at nine North American locations, the company has annual sales in excess of $325 million.
