Contrary to expectations, there was no price collapse on the recovered paper market in the UK in November.
Prices for ordinary grades increased due to strong demand from Asia and continental Europe, while prices for higher grades were flat. Market insiders are concerned about the shortage of 40-foot containers in particular and they expect dramatic increases in container freight rates on Asian routes.
