The forecasted values of pulp, paper, and paperboard production in Switzerland indicate a consistent downward trend from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the actual production value stood at 598.0 million Euros. When we analyze year-on-year percentage variations from 2024 to 2028, it shows a steady decline: -1.8% from 2024 to 2025, -1.8% from 2025 to 2026, -1.8% from 2026 to 2027, and -1.9% from 2027 to 2028.
