Koehler Raises Price for Thermal Papers in N.A.

Papierfabrik August Koehler AG, a member of the Koehler Paper Group, Oberkirch, Germany, this past week announced that it will increase the prices for its thermal papers in North America by 5%, effective April 1. The company related the price increase to continued escalation of raw material costs.
