In 2023, Germany held the largest share of European paperboard case materials exports, contributing significantly to overall exports. Sweden, France, Poland, and Austria followed. Notable year-on-year growth was observed in Italy with a substantial increase, while Slovakia showed the most dramatic rise, and Greece also experienced significant growth. Declines were seen in Latvia, Estonia, and especially Ireland.
Future trends to watch may include the potential for increased market shares in Italy and Slovakia due to their recent growth patterns. Conversely, Ireland might face challenges in recovering its lost share. Environmental regulations and technological advancements in paperboard production could significantly impact future export dynamics.
