Tissue Paper Market Analysis

The Tissue Paper Market size is estimated at USD 20.85 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 27.49 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 5.68% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

• With the global average consumption per person per year reaching 55 kg, the global tissue paper market is projected to witness a CAGR of 5.68%. A survey by AFRY found that global tissue consumption hit about 44 million tons in 2023, with estimates pointing toward a climb to 55 million tons by 2032. This growth is driven by increasing consumer demand for hygiene products, advancements in tissue paper manufacturing technologies, and expanding distribution networks.
• Regional growth in the tissue paper industry varies due to factors like raw material availability, environmental considerations, income disparities, and consumer behavior. For instance, regions with abundant raw materials and favorable environmental policies tend to have more robust growth. Conversely, areas facing raw material shortages or stringent environmental regulations may experience slower growth.
• Asia-Pacific, driven by rising disposable incomes, improving living standards, and rapid industrialization and globalization in nations like China, India, and Indonesia, is poised to experience the most significant growth during the forecast period. The region's expanding middle class and increasing urbanization contribute to higher tissue paper consumption. Government initiatives promoting sanitation and hygiene further boost the market’s growth in these countries.
• Factors such as a thriving tourism and hospitality sector, a growing global working-class population, and an increasing consumer emphasis on health and hygiene are set to propel the global tissue paper market. The tourism and hospitality industry, in particular, demands high volumes of tissue paper products, including toilet paper, facial tissues, and paper towels, to cater to the needs of travelers and guests. Moreover, the rising awareness of hygiene practices among consumers, especially in the wake of global health crises, has led to increased usage of tissue paper products in households and public spaces.
• However, the market's reliance on the pulp industry could face challenges, especially with mounting environmental concerns like deforestation and global warming, as trees are being felled at an alarming rate. The industry's environmental footprint, including water and energy consumption during production, also raises sustainability issues. To mitigate these challenges, companies are exploring alternative raw materials, such as recycled fibers and non-wood pulp sources, and investing in eco-friendly production processes to reduce their environmental impact.
