According to the data monitoring of SunSirs, the price of waste paper in Zhejiang is still rising last week. As of November 25, the average purchase price of grade A waste yellowboard in Zhejiang was 2,020 RMB/ ton, up 0.9% compared with the average price of 2,002 RMB/ ton on November 20. The price of corrugated paper dropped slightly.

According to the observation of market changes, the domestic waste paper price is still in the state of regional adjustment last week, and the paper enterprises still adjust their quotations according to their own raw material inventory demand. The fluctuation of waste paper price is mostly affected by the following factors. First, the recurrence of domestic epidemic continues to be serious, leading to the reduction of market consumption and transportation; Second, the imbalance between supply and demand has worsened. Recently, many base paper enterprises have issued a notice of production suspension, which will bring down the demand for waste paper. In addition, affected by the wood pulp market, white waste paper has picked up slightly recently.

In terms of the price of corrugated base paper, the price of corrugated paper dropped slightly last week. Although the mainstream paper mills intend to stop the decline by rising, the downstream customers have limited acceptance ability, and they still focus on actual orders and negotiations, which has little impact on the market transaction price. However, with frequent outbreaks in various parts of the country, the demand of downstream paper packaging enterprises did not meet expectations, and the impact of imported corrugated paper on the domestic market, the price of domestic base paper fell. The fundamental reason for the market quotation of corrugated paper and cardboard is that the demand is poor and the order is insufficient, which makes the buyers generally cautious.

According to SunSirs paper analysts, the waste paper price is mainly fluctuated in the range at present, and the demand for waste paper will decrease due to the shutdown of the paper mill. In addition to the current limited shipping in some parts of China, market trading and investment are difficult to change, and paper prices are in a weak consolidation state. It is expected that the short-term prices of waste paper and corrugated paper may continue to fluctuate in China.
