In 2023, Germany remained the dominant player in European road freight transport of secondary raw materials, municipal, and other wastes loaded in non-border regions, although showing a slight decline. Poland and the Czech Republic experienced significant growth, while Sweden and Lithuania saw declines. Modest increases were noted in Norway, Hungary, Ireland, Cyprus, and Estonia, highlighting a mixed landscape. Secondary growth in Slovenia was notable. In contrast, countries like Denmark and the Netherlands faced slight reductions, reflecting a slightly shifting market.
Future trends in Europe's road freight transport will likely focus on eco-friendly practices and technology adoption to enhance efficiency and regulatory compliance, impacting overall market dynamics. Watch for increased emphasis on circular economy principles and waste management innovations.
