Generally speaking, the United Kingdom Paper Due to the financial crisis still in a very difficult period, but is unlikely to recover in a short time, however, the British printing company but only a few years in paper prices has been difficult to get rid of the shadow.
From the start of 2009, there are signs that paper prices will continue to rise in the coming months. Market research firm PPLResearch's latest report also showed that paper prices will continue to rise, while the British paper and Cardboard Industry will usher in an "unprecedented new situation."
