Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2021, the market volume of non-reinforced, non-laminated non-cellular polyethylene sheets and film in Bosnia and Herzegovina increased from 20 000 t to 24 000 t. The early period was influenced by the ongoing alignment of national consumer protection and plastic product safety legislation with EU standards, which established new requirements for market access. After stabilization in 2019, the market grew in 2020 and saw a significant expansion in 2021.

Market dynamics shifted between 2022 and 2024. Volume declined to 22 000 t in 2022, then fell sharply to 13 000 t in 2023. This contraction occurred alongside global economic pressures, including high inflation and rising raw material costs, which increased production expenses and dampened demand. The market rebounded to 22 000 t in 2024, a recovery supported by a reported 13% increase in production of non-cellular polyethylene film and sheets across Europe, signaling stronger regional demand.

In 2025, key developments included the Federal Ministry of Trade formulating a trade development strategy for 2025-2031 to bolster domestic manufacturing, while greater focus on environmentally acceptable materials and plastic waste management continued to shape the industry's operating environment.
