Total U.S. kraft paper shipments were 133,000 tons in April, an increase of less than 1% compared with the prior month, according to the AF&PA (Washington, D.C., USA) April 2013 Kraft Paper Report published this week. Bleached kraft paper shipments increased year-over-year 10.3%, but the 3.1% year-over-year decline in the larger category of unbleached kraft paper shipments was enough to bring overall kraft paper shipments down 1.2% year-over-year.
Total month-end inventory decreased 7.1% to 66,500 tons this month compared with March 2013 month-end inventories.
