"Now that Russia has joined the World Trade Organization and opened its borders to imports through reduced tariffs, our subscribers are even more interested in developments within the dynamic Russian packaging market," said PPI Europe Editor Steven Sachoff.

The first Russian containerboard market story appeared in the October 25 issue of PPI Europe. Full price coverage will begin in 2013.
