Hardwood pulp vs. Softwood pulp Eucalyptus pulp is cheaper to produce than softwood pulp

Most hardwood pulp comes from eucalyptus wood

Best suited for paper products with high smoothness,

opacity and uniformity (i.e. tissue)

Softwood pulp (BSKP)

Eucalyptus only grows under very specific climate conditions, usually in warm subtropical regions.

More abundant pines are better adapted to cold climates

Low production cost High production cost

Hardwood pulp (BHKP)

Forestry yield: 12 – 18 m3 / ha / year

Harvesting cycle: 12 - 15 years

Industrial yield: 2.6 – 3.0 m3 / ton of pulp

Iberian Globulus

Most softwood pulp comes from pine wood

Best suited for paper requiring higher durability and

strength (i.e. printing & writing)

Forestry yield: 2 – 4 m3 / ha / year

Harvesting cycle: 50 - 70 years

Industrial yield: 4.8 - 5.2 m3 / ton of pulp

European BHKP Pulp Prices RISI´s European BHKP Pulp Price Estimates ($/t)

Tight supply and demand balance in 2017 driven by:

Capacity integrations and conversions to other pulp

grades in Asia

Unplanned production outages

Progressive ramp-ups of new capacity

High pulp prices expected for the next 3 years:

No more large capacity increases in the pipeline

Continued demand growth based on tissue

consumption mega-trend
