In 2023, Austria dominated the European slate and board production market with a substantial share of 66.48%, followed by Italy at 18.12% and the United Kingdom at 12.99%. Lithuania, showing a modest growth of 5.59% from the previous year, and Spain at 4.58%, signaled positive developments, while Italy and the UK experienced declines of 13.3% and 8.07%, respectively. Despite Romania witnessing a steep decrease of 35.86%, countries like Croatia and Estonia experienced rising trends.
Looking forward, market observers should focus on Austria's continued dominance, potential recovery in Italy and the UK, and emerging players from smaller economies such as Croatia and Lithuania, which may reflect broader shifts in production capacities and demand across Europe.
