Koehler Paper, part of the Koehler Group and one of the world's leading manufacturers of thermal paper, has increased prices for thermal paper by 8% with the adjustment applying to all new orders effective immediately.

The price increase is driven by continued high-cost pressure across the entire value chain, with ongoing price increases for raw materials required in thermal paper production resulting in significant additional costs while costs for energy, logistics, and supply chain operations remain at an elevated level.

Despite consistent efforts to increase efficiency and optimize internal processes, Koehler Paper continues to face cost developments that cannot be fully offset, with the price adjustment deemed necessary to maintain product quality and ensure reliable supply for customers going forward.
