January 2016 output figures distributed by the AF&PA indicate “total boxboard production increased 0.5 percent when compared to January 2015 and increased 2.6 percent from [December 2015],” says the association. Similarly, “The production of recycled boxboard increased compared to January 2015 and increased when compared to [December 2015],” adds the group.

The larger containerboard sector likewise experienced a good start to the year in the United States, according to AF&PA. “Containerboard production was 1 percent higher compared to January 2015 [and] the month-to-month average daily production compared to December 2015 was 5.3 percent higher,” says the organization. The containerboard operating capacity rate for January in the U.S. checked in at 95.2 percent, says the group.
