Uncoated Free Sheet Update

Uncoated white paper prices continue to push upward - trade sources suggest that overall price levels are up $40-60/ton since beginning of year. The cut-size (desktop and copier papers) market remains the strongest. Domtar, International Paper, Georgia Pacific and others are out with a $60/ton March price hike on 50-lb offset rolls, with other Uncoated Free Sheet grades set to follow. The increase comes shortly after many producers announced a $60/ton
increase on cut-size paper for February.
Paper.com still has products available on site that have not been increased, subject to availability.
