The export landscape for paper products diverged in the first two months, with rapid growth in the ASEAN market offsetting the decline in Europe and the United States.

In the first two months of this year, my country's paper product export market showed a significant divergence. Customs data shows that against the backdrop of shrinking demand in European and American markets, emerging markets such as ASEAN are becoming important growth drivers for paper companies' exports.


Specifically, in the first two months, my country exported 58,000 tons of inorganic coated paper to ASEAN, a year-on-year increase of 20.5%; exports to India were particularly strong, with cumulative exports of inorganic coated paper reaching 38,000 tons, a substantial increase of 1.9 times. Regarding coated paper, exports to ASEAN reached 28,000 tons, an increase of 49%, accounting for 15% of my country's total coated paper exports during the same period.
