In 2023, the import of plywood sheets at most 6 mm thick with at least one outer ply of tropical or coniferous wood to France stood at 68.50 thousand cubic meters. The forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady decline in volume, decreasing from 61.16 in 2024 to 36.95 thousand cubic meters by 2028. The year-on-year percentage decreases from 2024 to 2025 and subsequent years indicate a continuous downward trend, with an average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -10.60% over these forecasted years, reflecting diminishing demand or increasing competition.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential impacts of environmental regulations on plywood export and import dynamics.
Technological advancements in production or alternative materials that could affect demand.
Economic factors like exchange rates or tariffs influencing international trade.
