In 2023, the gross investment in Italy’s waste collection, treatment, and disposal activities and materials recovery sector stood at 1.43 billion euros. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady increase, reaching 1.47 billion euros by 2028. Year-on-year growth remains consistent yet modest, averaging a yearly growth of approximately 0.5%. Over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is expected to hover around 0.55%, indicating stable investment expansion in this sector.
Future trends to watch include potential regulatory changes that could drive investments in sustainable technologies and innovation in waste management practices. Additionally, rising environmental concerns and EU directives could further incentivize investment opportunities aimed at enhancing Italy’s waste management infrastructure.
