The global import of pulps of fibers derived from recovered paper or paperboard exhibits significant variation among countries. In 2023, China led with $220 million, followed by Germany and Japan. The largest year-on-year increase was observed in Canada's imports, rising by 22.66%, while Belgium faced a substantial decline of 11.33%. Other notable increases occurred in Egypt (11.99%), Bulgaria (13.98%), and Mongolia (40.39%). Multiple countries, including Serbia and Argentina, experienced downward trends.
The forecast for 2024 indicates continued growth in countries with previously high increases such as Canada, underscored by ongoing expansions in recycling capabilities. However, global economic conditions and environmental regulations will play crucial roles in shaping future import patterns, urging a watchful eye on changing policies and market dynamics. Additionally, technological advancements in recycling and sustainability efforts may alter traditional import demands and supply chains.
