Between 2013 and 2017, several paper production sites in Europe converted their production. Due to the changing profitability, former graphic paper manufacturers started producing corrugated paper. The biggest conversion was implemented in 2017 by the company Leipa in Germany. Its 11 papermills located in Schwedt were planned to produce 50 million metric tons of mainly recycled containerboard per year.
