In the wake of the pandemic, the paper market has had to contend with a severe shortage, prompting increased costs. Added to this are rising energy prices as a result of the war in Ukraine, and impacted Russian oil and gas imports.

Consequently, paper purchasing costs have increased by 15-25% in the first quarter, and suppliers have warned us about the limited quantity of stocks and supply difficulties.

In this context, everyone is reminded to adopt reasoned use of paper and not to print unnecessarily.
