Domestic corrugated and containerboard paper market in the past five years: prices have fluctuated, profits first decreased and then increased- Jiaxing Hengchuang Packaging Technology Co., Ltd.

In recent years, with the rapid development of the domestic economy for many years, as well as the steady implementation of favorable policies such as the "ban on abolition" and "plastic limit" in the industry, the upstream and downstream development pattern of China's corrugated and containerboard industry has been continuously optimized, and the industry has been concentrated. The degree is continuously improved. Large-scale paper enterprises take advantage of their own scale, capital, technology and other advantages to continuously improve their profitability, expand their scale and optimize their industry structure.

From the perspective of market operation, the price of Corrugated Cardboard Gift Boxes in China is ups and downs. Among them, market supply and demand, industry policies, and cost factors are the main factors that drive price fluctuations.

In the first half of 2017-2018, with the implementation of the industry's "banning and abolition order" and the implementation of tariffs on US waste, the price of upstream raw material waste paper rose sharply. Repeatedly new highs.

From the third quarter of 2018 to the first half of 2019, affected by the slowdown in global economic growth, Sino-US disputes and other macro factors, downstream demand has weakened, and the cost-side waste paper price has continued to decline simultaneously. The market focus of China's corrugated and containerboard paper products fell sharply.

Beginning in the second half of 2019, corrugated and containerboard products revolved around cost and supply and demand, and prices were slightly revised upward. Among them, the corrugated paper market fluctuated between 3,000-3,300 yuan/ton, and the containerboard paper was between 3,700-4,100 yuan/ton. run in between.

In 2020, the market fell first and then rose. In May, the corrugated paper market dropped to 2,954 yuan/ton in panic, and the containerboard fell to 3,660 yuan/ton. After that, with the first recovery of the Chinese market, various industries actively resumed work and production, with strong demand support, corrugated paper. And containerboard opened a rising channel. By December, the price of corrugated paper rose to 3617 yuan / ton, and the price of container board rose to 4569 yuan / ton.

In 2021, the market prices of corrugated and containerboard paper products in China will rise sharply. The main reason is that the waste paper market will officially enter the era of "no external waste" in 2021. The supply of raw material waste paper will be tight, and the price will be difficult to reduce. Under the influence of cost support, corrugated and Containerboard products are running at a high level. At the same time, external factors such as public health events and extreme weather continue to disrupt the market. The operating rate of paper companies is low and the supply is tight. According to Longzhong information statistics, as of November 2021, the average annual price of corrugated paper products is 4,071 yuan/ton, and the average price of containerboard products in 2021 is 4,872 yuan/ton, both at high levels in recent years.
