Fastmarkets invited feedback from the industry on the pricing methodology for European PIX Paper indices via an open consultation process between March 13 and April 14 2026. This consultation was done as part of our published annual methodology review process.

Fastmarkets is proposing to launch new price series for its benchmark European PIX Pulp gross prices and North American effective list pulp prices from June 1, 2026. The new prices would run concurrently alongside existing prices for one year before the existing prices with higher discount levels are discontinued on June 1, 2027.

The publication of Fastmarkets’ India domestic recycled containerboard price assessments for Friday April 3 will be delayed due to staffing availabilities.
