The price rise will be effective with shipments in the U.S. and Canada on or after June 10, 2022.
"Ongoing market tightness and additional inflationary cost pressures from rising paperboard prices, our primary raw material, along with higher labor rates, make this increase necessary," said Doug Schwartz, Division VP and General Manager, North America Tubes and Cores.
