Sonoco Products (SON) said Thursday it is implementing a 60 euros ($64.6) per-metric-ton price hike for all grades of its core board and paperboard in Europe, effective April 7.
The company said the pricing decision is driven by a general shortage of the old corrugated containers that are the primary raw material in core board production, as well as elevated energy costs.
