PAPER MARKET IN GCC​…..

GCC Paper Products Market to Grow at 3.4% During 2023-2028: Increasing Demand for Paper Packaging Solutions and Hygiene Tissue

Explore the PAPER MARKET IN GCC at Propaper Dubai, the leading paper exhibition in the UAE. The GCC Paper Products Market is projected to grow at an impressive 3.4% from 2023-2028, driven by the increasing demand for Paper Packaging Solutions and Hygiene Tissue. The market, which reached US$ 11.2 Billion in 2022, is expected to experience substantial growth in the coming years.

The rising demand for paper products in GCC countries, including Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman, is fueled by economic growth, urbanization, and evolving lifestyles. Influenced by the ban on single-use plastic, a global focus on sustainability, and a greater use of recycled products, the paper industry in the region is undergoing significant transformations.

The paper products industry encompasses establishments engaged in manufacturing pulp, paper, and paperboard. This includes those that further convert manufactured paper and paperboard into products such as corrugated and solid fiber boxes, folding paperboard boxes, paper bags, cups, and plates. Key players in the Speciality Paper Market, paper cup manufacturers, paper mills, converters, and allied industries contribute significantly to the growth of the Paper market in GCC.

GCC paper cup market is valued at USD 351.88 million in the current year and is expected to attain a CAGR of 3.40% during the forecast period to reach USD 437.26 million in the next five years.

This sector presents an opportunity for those participating in paper boards exhibitions, such as Propaper Dubai, a leading paper exhibition in the UAE and Dubai.

The speciality papers market is anticipated to register a CAGR of 6.8%. These papers, known for enhanced moisture retention, optimal pH levels, and hygiene, cater to the packaging needs of the food and beverage, lifestyle, and cosmetics industries. The rising disposable incomes further amplify the demand for top-notch packaging material, fostering substantial market growth.

The current scenario, marked by the ongoing Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) between India and the UAE, coupled with the growing ease of business between the two nations, presents an opportune time to enter or expand in the market. Propaper Dubai 2024 serves as an ideal platform to connect with industry leaders and key decision-makers from around the world. This show brings together facets of the paper sector, including paper boards, hygiene tissue, paper mills, printing, and packaging, encompassing both small and large-scale industries.
