• Graphic paper use down in U.S., EU and Japan – less to recover
• Already high recovery rates? U.S. 72%, Europe 77%, Japan 81%
• Raising recovery rates elsewhere – not enough to offset loss above
• More specialty papers, food grades, composites, not as recoverable
• Marginal cost of collection rising – deeper into the waste stream
• Quality of marginal supply declining – e.g. single stream recovery
• Tissue demand growing fast (4.5%), potential recovery rate lower.
