M-real has increased its folding boxboard prices by EUR 70 per tonne in Europe.
The increase is made to cover the severe cost inflation experienced in previous
years and to compensate the rising pulp price. The increase will be effective
for deliveries ex mill and ex stock from 1 December 2009, and will be valid
until further notice. 

“We have brought additional customer benefits by new product innovations like
the LITE4U concept. Through this price increase we secure our ability to
support our customers' success also in the future,” says Mika Joukio, Head of
Consumer Packaging. 

The main drivers for M-real's profit improvement have been internal cost
savings and efficiency improvements complemented by the price increases.
