The Navigator Company will increase the price of its tissue papers by 8 to 12% in all products and markets.

This increase will be effective from 1 November deliveries and follows two previous price increases in January and July.

The company said the move was “due to the continuous increase in key raw materials costs, namely short and long fibre pulp, energy and chemicals which are generating an unsustainable pressure on all producers’ margin”.

The Navigator Company is a printing and copy paper producer that entered the tissue market in 2015 with the acquisition of the AMS mill in Vila Velha de Ródão, Portugal.
