Geographic Concentration & Market Logic
Brazil dominates Paraguay's uncoated paper exports, accounting for 47.4% of shipments by frequency and 39.3% by weight, but only 38.6% by value—revealing a slight bulk hub dynamic where volume slightly outpaces value. This suggests Brazil serves as a cost-efficient processing or transit point for raw or semi-finished paper, rather than a premium end-market. The near-parallel ratios across Chile (25.2% value vs. 25.2% weight) and Argentina (17.7% value vs. 16.7% weight) reinforce a regional trade structure optimized for logistical scale over premium pricing. The supply chain is clearly calibrated for high-volume, low-margin flows to neighboring markets.

Paraguay HS Code 4805 Breakdown & Value Logic
yTrade data reveals HS 48059290 dominates Paraguay's uncoated paper exports (72% frequency, 70% volume), with 5.25M kg of mid-weight rolls (150-225g/m2) driving 69% of the segment’s $4.07M value. The remaining sub-codes—like recycled testliner (48052500) at 22% frequency—play secondary roles, suggesting Paraguay HS Code 4805 Export hinges on standardized, mid-tier products rather than premium or lightweight alternatives. Absent unit price data, the volume-heavy skew implies a market optimized for bulk throughput over niche value. This is a classic volume-driven trade, where scale eclipses specialization.
