Total U.S. kraft paper shipments were 132,600 tons in March, an increase of 11.6% compared with the prior month, according to the AF&PA (Washington, D.C., USA) March 2013 Kraft Paper Report published this week. Bleached kraft paper shipments decreased year-over-year 1.3%, and the 7.2% year-over-year decline in unbleached kraft paper shipments were enough to bring overall kraft paper shipments down 6.5% year-over-year.

Total month-end inventory increased 0.4% to 71,600 tons in March compared with February 2013 month-end inventories.
