From the perspective of raw materials, the price increase of paper and paper towels is closely related to wood pulp. According to the data, the pulp on the market at present is mainly divided into three categories: wood pulp, non-wood pulp and waste paper pulp. Among them, coated paper, white cardboard and other raw materials are mainly wood pulp, and most of the raw materials for household paper are wood pulp, and the use of bamboo pulp and bagasse pulp is also increasing.
Chang Junting, an information analyst at Zhuo Chuang, told Zhongxin.com that China's dependence on wood pulp imports is above 60%. Before 2020 1 1 month, the softwood pulp imported from China decreased by 1.44%, and the softwood pulp shipped to China before 1 1 month worldwide decreased by 9.6%, so the overall supply was slightly tight.
In terms of domestic wood pulp, although the output of hardwood pulp and chemimechanical pulp increased by 2.40% and 65,438+0-65,438+0.03% respectively in June 2020, the output of hardwood pulp and chemimechanical pulp decreased by 3.73% respectively in June 2028.
In terms of non-wood pulp, "in June 2020, bamboo pulp manufacturers were overhauled intensively, and the monthly starting load was 465,438+0%, which was 6 percentage points lower than that in June, and the inventory of pulp mills declined. In February, the inventory pressure of the pulp mill was not great, and the cost of stacking the original bamboo chips increased. Therefore, bamboo pulp manufacturers will increase the disk by 200-400 yuan. Zhuo Chuang information analyst Geng Sai pointed out.
