In October, the price of waste paper in Italy remained high. In the new round of price increase, the first is that the performance of high-grade waste paper has improved, while the performance of ordinary grade waste paper has only occasional and minor adjustments.

Prices in November showed early signs of weakness, at least for ordinary grade waste paper. The price rise of ordinary grade waste paper weakened in the month.

However, ordinary grade waste paper is still popular, and manufacturers of recycled corrugated box materials report that their orders are still good. However, some market participants found that paper mills now have a considerable inventory of recycled paper, and some suppliers pointed out that Italy’s waste paper recycling has begun to rise.

Another factor is that exports from the Far East were not active in October, and the demand in the region was relatively low. Some market observers believe that the current trend of the Italian domestic market may also be reversed.
