More Than 2/3rds Of U.S. Fiber Is Exoorted To China

摘要

Annual trade data published online by RISI, shows China accounted for 54 percent of global trade in recovered fiber in 2009, a substantial increase from its 34 percent share in 2004. The U.S. exported over two thirds of its recovered paper to China in 2009, just over 13 of its 19 million tons. Chinese paper and board mills imported another 17 million tons of recovered paper from the rest of the world.
