In 2023, Germany led European countries in non-renewable industrial waste available for final consumption, though it experienced a slight decline. Poland and Austria also saw marginal decreases while Italy and France showed growth. Notable increases were observed in Bulgaria, Croatia, and Lithuania, driven by various industrial activities. Over the past five years, consistent growth has been evident in Croatia and Lithuania with significant upward trends, contrasting with the Netherlands' contraction.
Future trends to watch include the integration of circular economy practices aimed at reducing industrial waste and regulatory shifts fostering sustainable industrial waste management across Europe, potentially altering consumption patterns substantially.
