The Navigator Company will increase its tissue prices by 5 – 8 % in all products and markets across Europe as of 1 July.

It said the decision follows “the continuous increase in key raw materials costs”.

The company produces printing and copy paper and entered into the tissue market in 2015 with the acquisition of the AMS mill in Vila Velha de Ródão, Portugal, a 100% virgin tissue operation.

It is completing the construction of a new tissue mill in Cacia, Portugal, which is integrated with its eucalyptus pulp mill and where tissue converting started at the beginning of May.
