22.05.25

Since the beginning of the year, suppliers in the paper and cardboard industry have been facing rising energy and raw material costs. These changes directly impact production processes and product pricing. At Gutenberg AG, we aim to keep you informed transparently about the current conditions.

Market update from our suppliers

Since the end of 2024, paper and cardboard producers have been facing new challenges. Persistently high energy prices and rising raw material costs are directly impacting production costs, which in turn affect the entire supply chain. To ensure supply security and continue offering high-quality products, the paper industry is compelled to adjust its prices. Starting June 2nd, the costs for certain items will be increased by four to six percent.

We are closely monitoring developments and, together with our partners, are always committed to offering you high-quality products at fair conditions—even when external factors bring about changes. The current developments highlight the importance of sustainable procurement and efficient resource utilization—topics that are very close to our hearts.

We thank you for your understanding and loyalty during these challenging times. It is important to us to keep you continuously informed about all developments and to work together to find ways to overcome these challenges.
