Recovered paper outlook for the North American market

Recorded on September 10, 2024

The recovered paper (RCP) industry is undergoing significant transformation. Supply and demand are diverging; paper producers are increasingly favoring mixed paper sources, while recyclers are pulling back from it. Additionally, consolidation among industry giants and inventory depletion are adding further complexity to market dynamics and impacting prices.

Fastmarkets’ RCP experts, Hannah Zhao and Megan Workman, shared their valuable insights on key topics in the market:

  • North American domestic RCP supply and demand dynamics
  • Updates on the structural changes in the market and their impact
  • A forecast of the North American RCP market for the next 2-3 years

In addition, Matt Graves, our SVP for indices, took a deep dive into Fastmarkets’ methodology, shedding light on how our IOSCO-compliant prices are derived from our expertise, impartiality and alignment with industry standards.
