Shipping vessel space
Availability of ocean containers
Logistics infrastructure such as rail and distribution centers
Proximity of domestic paper mill consumptions
Major Factors that Influences the Export Regions
Panama Canal Expansion
Current 5000 TEUs (2500 x 40’ containers) vessel capacity;
Future 13,000 TEUs (6500 x 40’ containers) vessel capacity
Increases vessel space and ocean container availability to East
Coast and Gulf Coast ports
Lowers ocean freights allowing export to be more competitive in prices and consistent movement
Increases the supply of fibers as distribution channels changes to
capture the advantage of more efficient logistics
Panama Canal Potential Game Changer

China’s Need For Cleaner Environment
China Customs will strictly enforce quality compliance of imported
recovered materials
Higher percentage of containers will be opened for detailed
inspection
China Customs will strengthen internal control and communication
China Customs will initiate joint programs with foreign
governments
Green Fence Initiative
Some European governments have taken a more active role in
managing the quality of collection programs
UK Resource Management Minister: “While some MRFs already
provide quality material, … more consistently across the industry.”
Prosecute recyclers who harm the environment
European Governments Recycling Initiatives
US recycling industry requires consistent demand from domestic
and overseas markets
Pricing and quality are critical in keeping US recovered fibers
competitive in the global markets
Recyclers need to generate not just “green” but “clean” materials
Recycling industry contributes to the economy and job growth
