The paper and paperboard market in Qatar is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.6% from 2025 to 2031. This growth can be attributed to the increasing consumption of disposable products, rising demand for corrugated packaging materials, rapid urbanization and industrialization, growing e-commerce industry as well as introduction of innovative products in the market. Additionally, increasing investments by governments across countries towards infrastructure development is also propelling the market growth over forecast period.
The demand for disposable products has significantly increased in recent years due to changing lifestyles which have resulted in greater preference for convenience food items such as ready meals packaged food and snacks among others which require effective packaging solutions that can help protect them from contamination or damage during transportation or storage resulting into higher consumption of paper & board products thereby driving the overall market growth over forecast period.
The major challenges faced by the Qatar paper and paperboard market during this period was the rising competition from digital media and electronic communication. With the increasing adoption of digital platforms, there was a noticeable decline in the use of traditional paper-based materials for communication and information storage. This shift towards digitalization posed a significant threat to the paper and paperboard industry in the country. Additionally, environmental concerns became a critical challenge for the industry. As awareness about climate change and sustainability increased, consumers and businesses started demanding more eco-friendly and recyclable packaging solutions. This prompted the industry to adapt and invest in more sustainable production practices, including recycling and sourcing paper from certified sustainable forests. Despite these challenges, the market also witnessed opportunities for growth. The government of Qatar, recognizing the importance of a sustainable economy, initiated several policies and regulations to promote recycling and reduce carbon footprints. Such measures encouraged companies in the paper and paperboard sector to innovate and develop eco-friendly products, attracting environmentally conscious consumers and businesses.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a considerable impact on the Qatar paper and paperboard market. With office spaces and educational institutions operating remotely, the demand for writing and printing papers declined. Conversely, there was a surge in the demand for cardboard packaging as online shopping and food delivery services surged. Manufacturers had to optimize their production lines to cater to the changing demands of the market. As the economy rebounded, the market for paper and paperboard products also began to stabilize.
