Analysis of the current market situation and development prospects of China's renewable resources industry in 2020 the shortage of waste paper raw materials will exist for a long time

release date: Source: prospective industry research institute

waste paper is an important recyclable renewable resource in China. Internationally, waste paper is generally divided into European waste, American waste and Japanese waste. In China, the recycling degree of waste paper is at a low level compared with western developed countries. At present, there is an overall shortage of paper-making raw materials, and the scarcity of wood is difficult to solve in the short term. The shortage of waste paper raw materials will continue to exist

waste paper recycling is an important development trend of modern paper industry

waste paper, which generally refers to the recyclable renewable resources that the company is expected to enter the ranks of railway supporting suppliers and waste in production and life, including all kinds of high-grade paper, yellow board paper, waste cartons, edge cutting paper, packaging paper, enterprise paper, engineering paper, books, periodicals and newspapers, etc. With the development of economy and society, the use of paper is rising rapidly, and a large number of waste paper is produced. The raw materials of paper are mainly wood, grass, reed, bamboo and other plant fibers. Waste paper is also known as "secondary fiber", and its main use is fiber recycling to produce recycled paper products. According to the different fiber composition, recycling according to the paper type can maximize the value of waste paper resources. Because the traditional papermaking using logs to make pulp consumes a lot of wood, destroys the ecology, and causes serious pollution, the "urban papermaking" using waste paper has become the two major development trends of modern papermaking industry together with the "Forest Pulp paper integration" integrating afforestation and papermaking

the fluctuation of net import volume of waste paper decreased

in recent years, China has gradually tightened the waste paper import policy, and the available amount of waste paper imported by large-scale paper mills has decreased significantly. In, China's net import of waste paper showed a trend of fluctuation and decline. In 2019, China's net import of waste paper was 10.36 million tons, down 39.17% from 2018

the fluctuation of waste paper recycling increased

the current level of waste recycling in China is still low, mainly because about 25% of China's box board corrugated paper is indirectly exported in the form of packaging and cannot be recycled. In, China's waste paper recycling showed a fluctuating growth trend. In 2019, the recycling volume of waste paper in China reached 52.44 million tons, an increase of 5.64% over 2018

previously, the recycling rate of domestic waste paper has not been improved, and a large number of recycled waste paper has been processed into low-grade products such as cardboard and toilet paper by small enterprises with backward technology, which did not give full play to the resource value of waste paper and also brought serious secondary pollution. The low level of compilation of the industry, which took more than one year, is rooted in the lack of support policies for the waste paper recycling industry, but the poor industrial foundation is also an important constraint. However, in recent years, with the increase of national awareness of environmental protection and the promotion of waste classification, China's waste paper recycling rate has fluctuated. In 2019, China's waste paper recycling rate reached 49.0%, achieving a new high in 10 years

the utilization rate of waste paper has decreased significantly

in recent years, waste paper has been an important fiber raw material supporting the development of China's paper industry. With the continuous adjustment of the structure of China's paper raw materials, although the utilization rate of waste paper pulp has decreased year by year since 2014. In, the utilization rate of waste paper in China was higher than 70%. By 2019, the utilization rate of waste paper in China had fallen to 58.3%

the shortage of waste paper raw materials will exist for a long time.

at present, an important bottleneck of waste paper recycling in China is that waste paper raw materials are difficult to meet the requirements of papermaking enterprises in terms of quality and scale. In China, waste paper is simply divided into books, magazines, newspapers, cardboard, paper bags, white paper edges and so on. There is no unified standard, and it is transported in bulk from the distribution market of waste materials. The internationally standardized packaging waste paper has become a bulk trade commodity, and the classification standard of waste paper in the United States has reached 50. In addition, China's papermaking raw materials straw pulp and wood pulp are mixed, and the raw fiber composition of waste paper is also difficult to compare with foreign wood pulp waste paper. In the absence of industry standards and unified supervision, China's waste paper recycling system is very fragmented, which makes it difficult for China to fully take into account the interests of Mongolia in the cooperation between the two countries and to produce powerful large waste paper suppliers. Domestic waste paper is mixed and transported in small batches, which is difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production of paper enterprises. In order to pursue stable supply channels and raw material quality, it is inevitable for large and medium-sized paper enterprises to use imported waste paper as raw material

at present, there has been an overall shortage of paper raw materials. Due to the scarcity of wood, it is difficult to solve the problem in the short term, and the shortage of waste paper raw materials will continue to exist for a long time. In this case, the value of domestic waste paper resources increases. Once the supporting policies, industry standards, technologies and other issues are solved, which will have a great impact on product performance, the domestic waste paper recycling industry is bound to become a new investment hotspot
