#2 In EuropeThe Primary Form Plastic and Synthetic Rubber Manufacturing industry has contended with stringent recycling targets and plastic bans, curbing sales in an already economically challenging environment. France's ban on plastic packaging for fresh produce and plastic taxes in Italy and Spain have spurred innovation in sustainable materials and thwarted demand for traditional plastics. Plastic producers have also confronted shrinking sales and profit amid lofty and persistent inflation and volatile oil prices. Over the five years through 2024, revenue is projected to fall at a compound annual rate of 4.9% to €125 billion, with revenue falling 5.8% in 2024 alone.
