Sales of container glass amounted to around 1.94 million tonnes in the first half of 2024, a decrease of 4.4%. While there was slight growth in Germany, sales abroad continued to decline.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The paragraph in the beverage bottle segment<\/strong> declined in the first half of 2024 compared to the previous year, amounting to minus 3.2 per cent.<\/strong> A look at the sub-segments shows a decline in sales in the beer and spirits (minus 2.7 per cent), wine and sparkling wine (minus 3.0 per cent) and non-alcoholic beverages water, milk and juice (minus 6.1 per cent) segments. The downward trend of the previous year thus continued, but not as strongly.<\/p>\n

Sales of packaging glass for food continue to decline<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The packaging glass for food and packaging glass for pharmaceuticals and cosmetics segment also ended the first half of 2024 with a negative sales development of minus 7.0 per cent<\/strong> completed. The sub-segments developed similarly: sales of packaging glass for food without OGS (fruit, vegetables and preserves) fell by 9.6% in the first half of 2024. The packaging glass with OGS sub-segment recorded a decline of 3.7 per cent compared to the same period last year.<\/p>

\u201eUnfortunately, the hoped-for noticeable recovery of the container glass market did not materialise in the first half of 2024. We are cautiously optimistic that we were able to record sales growth in some segments in Germany in the first half of the year. We hope that this trend will continue and that sales will be characterised by growth in the second half of 2024.\u201c<\/p>\n
