Global Unbleached Softwood Kraft Pulp Market is valued approximately USD XX billion in 2021 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than XX % over the forecast period 2022-2028. Unbleached Kraft pulps are made from a mixture of prime softwood species (such as white spruce, lodgepole pine and subalpine fir) which are indigenous to British Columbia. This pulp is used for manufacturing a variety of paper products, such as printing and writing paper, specialty grades, and tissue products among others. Growing Food & Beverages industry and rising demand for sustainable packaging solutions are key drivers for the growth of Unbleached Softwood Kraft Pulp market. For instance, according to global database management company Statista- As of 2021, the global functional foods and beverage market was valued at USD 281.14 billion, and the market is predicted to grow at a compound annual growth rate of about 9.5 percent between 2021 and 2028 and would amount to USD 0.5 trillion by 2028. Furthermore, in January 2022, Finland based Paper & Forest Products company Ahlstrom-Munksjo has acquired 60% stake in Chinese decor paper producer Minglian New Materials Technology Co., Ltd. Also, with the increasing consumers preference towards paper packaging and rising e-commerce sector in emerging economies, the adoption & demand for Unbleached Softwood Kraft Pulp is likely to increase the market growth during the forecast period. However, volatile cost of raw materials and disruption in global supply chain due to pandemic restrictions impedes the growth of the market over the forecast period of 2022-2028.
