Brazilian pulp industry is starting to recover from the weak global demand for pulp and paper products, according to Wood Resources International (WRI).
In April, pulp exports equalled 766,000 tons, up 43 percent from the previous month and 140 percent higher than shipments a year earlier, WRI said in its Wood Resource Quarterly report.
The Brazilian pulp companies have benefited from closures of pulp mills resulting in reduced production capacity in the Northern Hemisphere and an increase in demand for pulp in China
Production reached 12.8 million tons, which was up from 11.8 million tons in 2007.
