Europe is characterized by the presence of several major economies such as Germany, the UK, France, Spain, Italy, and Russia. Supportive policies, strong growth in wages, and continuous employment creation are some of the factors contributing to the region's economic growth. 

However, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in several countries across the region is expected to negatively affect its economic growth. According to the International Monetary Fund World Economic Outlook October 2021, the Euro area’s economy declined by 6.3% in 2020 and is expected to increase by 5% in 2021 and 4.3% in 2022.

The EU Recovery Fund, which was announced to combat the economic crisis during the pandemic, is expected to assist many countries in various infrastructure projects. For instance, funding provided under the “Milano Cortina 2026” Winter Olympics scheduled in Italy, is expected to spur construction activities, which is one of the major contributors to metal waste.
