Paper Price Increase
Dear Customer,
As you will be aware, the ongoing instability in the Middle East has seen energy prices rise significantly in recent weeks, resulting in increased costs across all aspects of our business.
Despite our best efforts to mitigate these increases, the continued and unrelenting cost pressure on energy (gas and electricity), raw materials, transport and packaging, has left us with no alternative but to review our prices.
We understand how important stable pricing is for your business, particularly against a backdrop of ongoing inflation and economic uncertainty, so we apologise for this unavoidable need to change. However, it’s important that we do so to maintain the level of quality and service you have come to expect from Midland Paper.
We fully recognise the importance of our partnership and are trying to absorb as much of these costs ourselves, however we are still left with no alternative but to implement a 7.5% increase on all products, other than Raphael, which will increase by 4%. These changes will apply to all orders placed on or after Monday 20th April 2026.
Midland Paper are part of Northwood Group and are a fully integrated UK paper manufacturer. During this period of instability, we would like to reassure you we can offer security of supply. By controlling the entire process, from raw material sourcing and paper production through to conversion and distribution, we significantly reduce reliance on external suppliers and global supply chains.
We also promise to monitor changing costs on a regular basis, to ensure that you remain competitive if market conditions change.
Can we take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support. We are fully committed to working with you through these unpredictable and challenging times
If you would like any further information, then please contact your account manager who will be happy to help.
Yours Sincerely
Martin Kent
Commercial Manager
