[China Packaging News] the current paper packaging market seems to have entered a chaotic state. Leading papermaking enterprises have led the rise for many times, and the prosperity of the papermaking sector continues to rise. According to statistics, at present, corrugated paper is at a high level of 5800 yuan/ton -6200 yuan/ton, and kraft paper is between 6300 yuan/ton -6700 yuan/ton

while its downstream paperboard factories have recently lowered their prices. The boss of a secondary factory said: "the paper packaging market is in chaos, the raw materials are not lost, the products fall first, and the end customers know that the price of paperboard has fallen, and they don't agree with the price rise of cartons..."

the price of paper has risen, and the price of paperboard has fallen

in August and September, the price of paper has risen all the way, and its increase can be described as crazy. In October, the paper price rose again. According to industry sources, since October 11, the base paper price of Nine Dragons Paper industry has increased by yuan/ton, followed by paper giants such as Levin, Shanying and Rongcheng

as for its increase, according to the survey report of CCTV economic channel a few days ago, the corrugated paper commonly used in packaging cartons has increased by as much as 70% since 2017. Mr. Zheng, regional manager of a large domestic paper mill, said: "the price of corrugated paper for making cartons was 2200 yuan/ton -2600 yuan/ton in the first half of 2016, and at this stage is 5800 yuan/ton -6200 yuan/ton; the price of kraft paper for making cartons was 4600 yuan/ton -5000 yuan/ton in 2016, and 6300 yuan/ton -6700 yuan/ton this year."

however, just when the paper price seemed to be soaring, some secondary factories began to fall in price. On October 11, Nine Dragons Paper reached the goal of reducing weight and cost and issued a price increase message. The boss of a packaging enterprise said, "at present, there are also secondary factories that have started to promote three points due to poor orders, but the market outlook continues to rise, and the range will not be as large as before."

in South China, many managers of secondary factories also reported that although the cardboard price had just been established in September, it had recently fallen, and it also fell at this time in 2016, and it did not start to have a market until the end of the month. The boss of a secondary factory in Shanghai also revealed: "the paper packaging market is full of chaos. The requirements for safety, environmental protection and energy conservation in the production of raw materials without plastic calenders continue to improve, and the products fall first. The reason is the homogenization of the industry, serious overcapacity, resulting in the peak season and customer misunderstanding."

the carton factory was asked by the end customers to reduce the price

at the same time, the boss of a secondary factory in Shanghai also said: "originally, the customer agreed to the carton price increase this month, but now he doesn't agree to the price increase when he heard that the cardboard price fell. It's really painful for the carton factory! These days, many end customers have called to inquire whether the cardboard price really fell."

the falling price of cardboard directly leads to the difficulty in implementing the price rise of cartons. The boss of a carton factory also located in Shanghai also suffered a lot: "we agreed to increase the price originally, but now we are unwilling to do so. If we say that the price of cardboard will fall, the price of cartons will also fall. If we do so, we will not lose our lives."

it is understood that most of the customers of the carton factory are large enterprises, and the contract cycle is long, so it is difficult to follow up the price adjustment. The current price may be the price after the last round of cardboard price adjustment. Now the cardboard price is falling. If the carton price also wants to fall immediately, the price pressure received in the early stage will not be transmitted, and eventually only losses can be made

however, the reason why end customers ask for carton price reduction also shows that the current carton price is at a high price, which has also caused some cost pressure to some end customers. An e-commerce company in Hangzhou said, "from year ago to now, most of the carton prices have increased by 70%, and some have even increased by 80%. Now we can only reduce the carton materials and replace the two-layer packaging with one layer, so as to reduce the packaging cost."

now the "double 11" promotional activities have less than a month left. The consumption of cartons is rising, while the price of cardboard is falling. This also seems to indicate that in the price rise storm in recent months, the upstream and downstream price system of the industrial chain has been disrupted, and the market order has been overdrawn to a certain extent, and the current market is in a chaotic state
