View PricingU.S. Boosts Recovered Paper Shipments to India, Thailand and Vietnam after China’s Import Ban
IndexBox has just published a new report: 'U.S. - Recovered Paper - Market Analysis, Forecast, Size, Trends and Insights'. Here is a summary of the report's key findings.
Since China's ban on recovered paper imports came into force in 2021, the U.S. offset losses from reduced trade with China by redirecting export flows to India, Thailand, Vietnam, Brazil, Singapore, Malaysia and some other countries. In the first seven months of 2021, American exports reached $1.9B, picking up +44% against the same period in 2020. India topped the ranking of major importers of recovered paper from the U.S., taking the place of the last year's leader, China. Compared to other leading importers, Brazil recorded the highest spike in recovered paper purchases from the U.S.
American Recovered Paper Exports in 2021
Last year, analytics around the world predicted that American recovered paper exports would reduce as China's authorities announced a ban on imports of such materials since the beginning of 2021. In 2020, China was the key destination for recovered paper exports from the U.S., accounting for a 30% share of total exports. Contrary to sceptical forecasts, American recovered paper exports registered strong growth this year.
In the first seven months of 2021, American recovered paper exports reached $1.9B, growing by +44% against the same period in 2020. Since China imposed a ban on recovered paper imports in 2021, the U.S. significantly ramped up exports to other countries, in particular to India, Thailand, Vietnam, Brazil, Singapore and Malaysia.
Compared to the same period in 2020, American recovered paper exports to India and Singapore grew threefold in value terms in the first seven months of 2021. The supplies to Thailand and Malaysia increased fivefold, while exports to Vietnam rose by four times. Among the largest importers, Brazil recorded the highest spike in recovered paper purchases from the U.S., expanding its imports by twenty-four times in value terms.
From January 2021 to July 2021, India purchased recovered paper from the U.S. worth $0.5B, ranking first among the largest importers. Mexico ($0.3B), Thailand ($0.2B), and Vietnam ($0.2B) followed India.
