In 2023, the national container transport volume of secondary raw materials, municipal and other wastes in Germany stood at approximately 2.90 thousand TEUs. The year-on-year growth rates from 2024 to 2028 are respectively projected at around 1.69%, 1.67%, 1.66%, and 1.61%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) across these five years is estimated to be 1.65%, indicating steady, modest growth driven by continued improvements in waste management and recycling processes.
Future trends to watch for include technological advancements in recycling and waste management, the impact of regulatory changes in environmental policies, and potential shifts in consumer behavior towards sustainable practices which could further influence transport volumes.
