Sappi Europe adds EUR 20 per tonne fuel surcharge from 16 November

Sappi Europe will apply a fuel surcharge of EUR 20 per tonne to orders invoiced from 16 November 2026, citing continuing increases in energy and transport costs. The announcement, reported on 9 November, does not set out how the charge will appear on invoices or how it interacts with existing price terms.

Why this mattersA flat EUR 20/t surcharge passes rising energy and transport costs directly to Sappi's European paper and board buyers from mid-November.

• Sappi Europe will add a EUR 20-per-tonne fuel surcharge on orders invoiced from 16 November 2026.
• The company cites continuing increases in energy and transport costs.
• The surcharge applies by invoice date; the announcement does not say how it interacts with existing price terms.
