A new "super pulp producer" emerges! | 09-19-2008
Analysis of: Votorantim,AraInvest Agree On Investment Terms | www.paperage.com
Author: Dave Hillman, Independent Consultant, Dave Hillman

This merger effectively produces a major consolidation in the Brazilian BEKP market pulp industry which has long been talked about as being beneficial.  Having so much capacity in the hands of one super-producer certainly would seem to lessen chances of rogue discounting during a down cycle. VCP...

SCA in Mexico: a good example of a rapidly growing market | 09-17-2008
Analysis of: SCA To Build $240 Million Tissue Mill in Mexico | www.paperage.com
Author: Dave Hillman, Independent Consultant, Dave Hillman

The author of the article may be confusing of the new paper and paperboard mills in China that will utilize recycled waste paper with mills making virgin pulp from trees rather than secondary fiber waste paper. It is highly doubtful that China has the forest resources to support supply of 19+ million...

Analysis of: Tembec to Cut Pulp Production On Weak Demand | www.paperage.com
Author: Dave Hillman, Independent Consultant, Dave Hillman

The world of market pulp has enjoyed 2+ years of rising prices that saw NBSK rise to $880/admt (this summer's announced $30/admt increase didn't go through).  In spite of this company profits did not reflect this with some companies still reporting sizeable losses in the 2Q. What will happen to...
