The Navigator Company increases paper prices 10th of May 2021

The Navigator Company announced today that it will increase paper prices in Europe from 6% to 9%.

This increase will be effective for all dispatches from 10th of May, and the Company will inform shortly about the details of the new prices to be applied by product.

This decision was taken following not only further worldwide cost increases in pulp, chemicals and logistics, with structural effects in the profitability of the industry in Europe and across the globe, but also a robust demand for Navigator’s products and brands during late 2020 and the first months of 2021. The Company will continue to tightly monitor the market evolution of key business drivers and act, if required, to correct potential future imbalances between its products prices, raw materials and logistics costs.

The Navigator Company sells its products to 130 countries over five continents, under its paper brands with a strong reputation for superior and consistent quality – Navigator, Discovery, Explorer, Inacopia, Inaset, Pioneer, Soporset and Target.

The Company will continue working to reinforce its partnerships with customers and to appreciate the support provided.

Stora Enso delivers new low-carbon material for microwavable ready-meal trays

Trayforma by Stora Enso is a new wood fibre-based material composition designed for microwavable food tray packaging. The renewable material is free of PET, has a very low share of PP and a lower carbon footprint compared to traditional meal tray products. The material contains up to 95% wood fibres, making it widely recyclable in most existing carton packaging recycling schemes. Microwavable meals are typically packed in fossil-based PET trays as the material is safe for heating. Stora Enso’s Trayforma material replaces fossil-based plastics with renewable, light-weight paperboard that significantly lowers the carbon footprint of each tray. By changing to recyclable, low-carbon trays, brand owners and retailers selling microwave ready-meals can act on circular economy commitments.
