WEIG Adjusts Prices for Cartonboard – Ensuring Supply Security Amid Rising Costs

Mayen, February 21, 2025 – Due to continuously rising costs for raw materials, energy, and auxiliary materials, WEIG will adjust prices for cartonboard deliveries starting April 1, 2025. This measure is necessary to maintain the availability of products and services by passing on cost increases where necessary.

While WEIG has mitigated some of the additional costs through process optimizations, these efforts alone are not sufficient to fully offset the sharp rise in expenses. Therefore, price adjustments are essential to ensure a sustainable supply of recycled carton.

"We understand that price increases are challenging for our customers and have made this decision with great care," says Roland Rex, Managing Director for Sustainable Market Orientation at WEIG Holding. "Our priority remains ensuring the consistently high quality and availability of our products, along with reliable service."
