Manufacturers struggle to offer competitive pricing amidst raw material price surges
Dependency on imported pulp and paper inputs exposes firms to global supply chain disruptions
For instance, In Poland, multiple small-scale manufacturers reported delivery delays and cost overruns due to a spike in kraft paper prices caused by energy shortages and import delays
Europe Paper Cone Market Scope
The market is segmented on the basis of type, number of piles, taper of the cone, size, distribution channel, and end-user.
• By Type
On the basis of type, the Europe paper cone market is segmented into tight bong paper cone, jumbo paper cone, yarn paper cone, printed paper cone, bobbins, textile paper cone, wax paper cone, conical paper cone, construction cone, plain paper cone, and others. The tight bong paper cone segment dominated the market with the largest market revenue share in 2024, driven by its wide usage in the textile industry for yarn winding and its cost-effectiveness. This type of cone is valued for its durability and ability to handle high-speed operations, making it a preferred choice in spinning mills across the region.
The yarn paper cone segment is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, supported by the rising demand for yarn packaging in textile production hubs such as India and Bangladesh. The segment's growth is further strengthened by increasing exports of yarn-based products, which necessitate reliable and efficient cone solutions.
• By Number of Piles
On the basis of number of piles, the Europe paper cone market is segmented into single ply and multiple ply. The multiple ply segment held the largest market revenue share in 2024 due to its enhanced strength and structural integrity, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications.
The single ply segment is expected to witness the fastest growth rate from 2025 to 2032, owing to its cost-efficiency and rising usage in lightweight textile processes.
• By Taper of the Cone
On the basis of taper of the cone, the Europe paper cone market is segmented into up to 30 taper, 30 to 50 taper, and above 50 taper.
