Corrugated Medium Price Trend H2 2023
| Product | Category | Region | Price | Last Updated Month |
| Corrugated Medium | Packaging | China | 427 USD/MT | December 2023 |
| Corrugated Medium | Packaging | USA | 1064 USD/MT | December 2023 |
The fluctuations in consumer behavior and economic situations substantially impact the demand for packaging materials. Along with this, prices for raw materials, especially paper and recycled fibers, have affected pricing policies and production costs of corrugated medium heavily in the recent quarters.
The DDGS pricing trends are likely to be dependent on the trend being observed by the downstream pharmaceutical industries, as these grains serves as the feedstock material for a number of microbial fermentations processes in the pharmaceutical sector.
