“Glatfelter continues its extensive efforts to reduce overall costs and increase manufacturing efficiencies,” Chris Astley, SVP and chief commercial officer at Glatfelter, said in a press release. “However, these initiatives alone are not enough to offset the impact of the input cost inflation being experienced, which is why we are implementing price adjustments. We remain committed to continuing to supply best-in-class products, innovation, and service that our customers have come to expect.”
