Germany, recycled containerboard good start in 2015

Good start in 2015 has led to initial speculation that there might be a new price round at the end of the month. Industry experts are sceptical about manufacturers’ chances to implement price hikes in January or February. According to producers, demand for recycled corrugated case material was good at the end of 2014. No significant increase in paper inventories has been observed until the end of week 51.
