Analysis on China’s recovered paper policies, markets

Moore & Associates offers a new report from NPC Partners on China’s recovered paper policies.


Atlanta-based Moore & Associates, a paper recycling consulting firm, announced that a new report from NPC Partners, an innovative consultancy for the pulp and paper industry, Hong Kong, is now available in the U.S. and Europe through Moore & Associates.

Since 2017, China’s state council has gradually rolled out strategies to reduce imports of recyclable materials. In 2018, the country announced the goal of achieving zero “solid-waste” imports by 2020. Moore & Associates reports that the repercussions have been felt in all sectors of the recycling industry around the globe, particularly in the recovered paper (RCP) market. Despite much discussion on the impacts, most individuals outside of China do not know the whole story and are unsure of what will happen next.

As a result of extensive analysis and interviewing, NPC’s new report on RCP markets inside China provides insight on the following topics:

• review of China’s solid-waste management reform and environmental inspections;

• insights on new regulations—2018 to 2023—and future impacts for RCP markets;

• policymaker perspectives, both top-level decision-makers and implementation manager insights; 

• RCP demand and supply both within China and from imports; 

• RCP price trends, domestic versus imports;

• review of China’s paper industry performance from 2017 to 2018, new trends, capacity expansions;

• future scenarios for the global supply chain and China’s recycled and virgin fiber needs;

• risk assessment modeling for RCP supply under different trade policy scenarios; and

• quantitative scenarios covering domestic and imported pulp and RCP, imported recovered pulp, domestic and imported nonwood pulp, and imported paper and board.

NCP Partners has a network of specialists based in Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Atlanta. NPC Partners aims to assist the pulp and paper industry to develop solutions based on innovative strategies and new market insights. NPC Partners also offers approaches to analysis and out-of-the-box solutions that support growth and innovation, helping pulp and paper organizations to remain competitive.
