Paper industry in transition - the challenges we face!

2025 is here and is already picking up speed, and the paper industry is more innovative than ever. The industry is in the midst of a transformation that puts sustainability, digitalization and new materials in the spotlight. But what trends and market insights will shape our year 2025?
 
// Nachhaltigkeit als Wettbewerbsfaktor
Environmental awareness is no longer a trend, but a must. Recycled paper is becoming increasingly efficient and CO₂-neutral production processes are on the rise. If you don't keep up, you will lose out - the focus is on a holistic approach to the circular economy.
 
// Digitalisierung beschleunigt Prozesse
Smart factories and data-driven decision-making processes are revolutionizing production. Machines supported by AI optimize themselves, reduce downtimes and increase efficiency. Sounds like science fiction? It's already a reality in many factories, or is becoming one.
 
// Neue Technologien für den Einsatz von neuen Rohstoffen
From renewable mushroom fibers as a raw material for leather substitute products to fiber-based alternatives for plastics - innovations in the materials sector are creating new business areas.
 
Market insight:
According to forecasts, production output will increase by a total of USD 60 billion (around 6.6%) between 2024 and 2028. In 2028, production output is estimated to reach around USD 974 billion, a new high (Statista, 2024*). Experts assume that packaging paper will play a driving role in the future growth of the paper industry.
