Long, Hot Summer for Coated Paper Prices
Over the past month or so, there’s been a lot of discussion about coated paper prices. It began with Verso’s announcement in early April of a May 1 increase of $1.50 to $3.00 per cwt. for its coated paper, and then most coated mills followed suit and announced increases to be effective in May or June.
