Although the majors (incl Domtar, IP, Glatfelter, GP and Boise ) all announced a $40/ton price increase for uncoated freesheet grades (all except business papers) the reality is the price is just being implemented. A quick check of the market, 50-lb offset roll prices range from $805-835/ton and cutsize grades range from $1010-1060/ton.
The market is in an interesting position, pulp prices are up, demand is OK at best, inventories are low (due to curtailments), BUT, Portical has a monster of a paper machine with tons to sell. See more on the Coy Paper site under the tab for Industry Resources and news.
