摘要

Prices were reportedly flat on the markets for corrugated case material and cartonboard. This also means that the planned price hike for white-top kraftliner is not going through, at least not as of the envisaged date of 1 September. Low collection volumes and good demand led to price stability on the UK's recovered paper market, while prices ticked higher on the Chinese export market.

According to one expert, the downward trend had already started in mid-June and was therefore more pronounced this year than in previous years.
