The data from 2023 indicates that Sweden leads European mechanical and semi-chemical wood pulp exports to non-EU countries with 142.15 thousand metric tons, despite a recent year-on-year decline of 9.71%. Estonia and Norway follow with 63.15 and 35.02 thousand metric tons, respectively. The Netherlands showed a notable increase with a 15.01% rise. Other countries such as Finland have seen significant growth at 75.16%, while others like France and Portugal ceased exports entirely.
Future trends to watch include the continued growth of Finland as a leading exporter due to strong recent gains and the potential for renewed activity from countries like France if they resume exports. The impact of environmental regulations and sustainability initiatives on production and trade patterns should also be monitored closely.
