Why are Kraftliner - US East Prices so high?
09-12-2025 - The current market landscape presents a mixed outlook, with conflicting signals influencing price trends. Demand data, particularly from the global economy, suggests a potential decrease in raw material prices by -1.0 $/t. In contrast, data from Flows and Technical sources indicate upward pressure on prices, resulting in an overall uncertain market forecast.
Recent analyses highlight a possible decline in kraftliner prices in the near future. Fastmarkets anticipates that a combination of cost relief and weak demand could lead to a slight reduction in U.S. containerboard prices by late 2025. This projection is consistent with the forecast, which predicts a price decrease to 941.0 $/t in the upcoming month. This alignment underscores the potential for a modest downturn in the market, driven by these economic factors.
