The forecast for the sold production of sanitary towels, tampons, napkins, napkin liners for babies, and similar articles, as well as clothing accessories made of paper pulp and related materials in Germany, shows a decreasing trend from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 1.1866 billion euros in 2024, the value declines incrementally each year, reaching 1.1526 billion euros by 2028. This represents a steady annual decrease. Unfortunately, specific data for 2023 is absent, hindering a direct year-on-year comparison. The compound annual growth rate over these five years indicates a consistent average decline in production value.

Future trends to monitor include:

The influence of sustainability trends on consumer preferences and production processes in the hygiene products sector.
Innovative biodegradable materials and their impact on the market share of traditional paper-based products.
Economic factors' influence on production costs and pricing strategies in the paper-based product industry.
