If your business needs high volume printing, you might not ever think of the price of paperbut you should. Of course, inflation is always a factor, but the industry has also eliminated many paper mills due to decreased U.S. demand. Why are Paper Costs Rising? Currently, foreign demand for paper is competing with U.S. businesses. The devastating Hurricanes Irma and Harvey took a major toll on the U.S. economy and paper mill infrastructure. Nearly 20 major U.S. pulp and paper mills were shut down after these storms. Now that fewer mills exist, paper pulp costs are rising.
