The forecast for Germany's production of paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding, and webs of cellulose fibers from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual decline from 288.37 million kilograms in 2024 to 276.08 million kilograms in 2028. Year-on-year, the production is projected to decrease by approximately 1% annually, signaling a steady downward trend. Assuming a baseline close to the 2024 figure, the five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a negative average variation.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of digitalization reducing paper demand, shifts towards sustainable and recycled materials, and potential fluctuations in raw material costs affecting production. This sector's evolution will be important to monitor for opportunity identification or as an adaptation catalyst.
