Prices of recycled corrugated case material in Germany remain unchanged in January

Customer-specific price agreements for greyboard at the turn of the year

In the middle of January, it appears that manufacturers of recycled corrugated case material have so far not succeeded in raising prices in Germany. However, converters have already received notice of fresh hikes with effect from 1 February so the market situation remains dynamic. Manufacturers of virgin-fibre cartonboard met with greater success, implementing higher prices in negotiations for December, but they appear to have taken a customer-specific approach. Greyboard prices were also adjusted individually, but in general, prices tended to move laterally.
