Germany leads European paper and paperboard exports with 21.69% share, followed by Finland and Sweden. While major players like Germany, the Netherlands, and Spain saw gains in 2023, Finland, Sweden, and the UK experienced declines. Eastern European countries, despite smaller shares, showed promising growth, with Romania and Greece experiencing significant increases. Notably, Malta saw a substantial decrease.
Future trends may include continued growth in Eastern Europe and recovery for countries currently experiencing declines. The paper industry's shift towards sustainable practices and packaging innovations could also influence export dynamics across Europe.
