In light of changes in trading patterns following China’s ban on imports of “unsorted” recyclables such as mixed paper that began on December 31, 2017, as well as a 0.5% rule on contaminants for imported recovered paper, RISI proposes to launch bi-weekly assessments of the following recovered paper grades CIF main ports in Asia in PPI Asia starting from April 6, 2018:
– Imports of Old Corrugated Containers (11) from the US
– Imports of Old Corrugated Containers (90/10) from Europe
– Imports of Old Corrugated Containers from Japan
– Imports of Sorted Residential Paper and News (56) from the US
– Imports of Newspapers (2.01) from Europe
As previously announced, RISI will also begin publishing bi-weekly assessments for Mixed Paper from April 6, 2018.
– Mixed Paper & Board from Japan
– Mixed Paper & Board from Europe (1.02)
– Mixed Paper from US (54)
