Paper industry price-fixing probe includes major label stock producers.

Illegal cartel agreement and/or counter
Today, competitive pricing seems to be a regular feature of the European cardboard industry.
The latest investigation began in May 25, when the European Commission conducted a series of raids on the offices of major European paper makers, which also included their subsidiaries in North America.
Of course, such a preliminary action does not prejudge whether the company is guilty.
Similar survey in 1995
After 96 years, the pricing of newspaper and magazine paper was closed and there was no evidence of a violation.
The difference this time was that the producers of label paper, recycled paper and pulp wood chips were attracted to the survey.
The operation started in Finland and raided offices. Kymmene (
Companies with UPM label paper and Raflatac)
The Finnish Competition Authority is responsible.
Its director general, Matti Purasjoki, said the investigation could take months, or even up to a year, in order to achieve results on the allegations, if any.
UPM is already the subject of a grand jury investigation in the United States, investigating pricing allegations in the label stock business after receiving asubpoena on last August.
In April 2003, UPM had planned to acquire label stock maker remactac from Bemis, but a civil antitrust lawsuit blocked the deal.
UPM\'s general counsel said the group launched an internal survey of competition practices covering all sectors in spring 2003.
It has also implemented additional competition law compliance programs for employees, indicating that it is zero tolerance for any antitrust activity.
In January, upm provided information to the competition authorities in the EU, the US and Canada.
This move gives UPM a full understanding of \"certain acts disclosed to the authorities\", but no further comments are expected during the investigation.
The paper experts believe that the information of UPM has prompted the Finnish Competition management agencies-
As part of the survey, the Finnish forestry group real and Matsaalitto.
Ahlstrom confirmed that it was included in the investigation into the release of the liner and the label panel.
Norway is not one of the 25 EU Member States, but state regulators raided the offices of the Norwegian Skog newspaper business.
The German Federal Broadcasting Corporation is also investigating several magazines and news Mills.
In another action, the national competition authority recently imposed a fine of [total]euro]57. 6 million ($71. 3million)
After discovering a series of regional cartels believed to have hurt German printersand their customers, there were 12 paper dealers and 46 people.
In the United States Ali Denison company Bemis.
He confirmed that European Commission officials and competition authorities in relevant countries had visited their respective factories and obtained documents related to European factories.
Avery Dennisonhas has facilities in the Netherlands and Germany, while Bemis has a sensitive material business in Belgium.
International newspapers confirmed that the antitrust department of the US Department of Justice visited the company, and the North American department of stoura ENSO was also surprised by the document summons.
The investigation into the so-called cartel took a long time to resolve, and therefore brought considerable uncertainty to the board.
For those found guilty, the European Commission has the right to impose huge antitrust fines.
For companies that work with investigators, they can be reduced or even abandoned, but recent headlines suggest that cartel spoilers in the EU have not been overturned.

Running a British label printer from itself
Helping organizations continue to put pressure on small and medium-sized enterprises
In the competitive market, adhesive label printers have prompted some UK label converters to set up the UK short-term label Association (BSRLA).
It aims to promote the interests of many small companies that are mainly engaged in short-term work, most of which are aimed at end users.
So far, it has received support from 26 companies.
They generally recognize that while the industry has maintained a slow volume growth, the continued pressure pricing and increasing costs of multinational suppliers have made trading conditions difficult.
The association developed its own website (www. bsrla. org. uk), aprivate e-
Mail discussion forums and codes of conduct aimed at promoting ethical, fair and sustainable trade in the market.
It is also investigating group buying of some raw materials.
Adrian Steele of Mercian label Co. , Ltd. said: \"We hope to establish a useful forum for smaller UK label printers to discuss some issues, including the current wave of material price increases
