France's import of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) in primary forms, not mixed with any other substances, shows a decreasing trend. Actual data for 2023 indicated a lower volume than the forecasted 198.86 million kilograms in 2024. A steady decline is observed with imports expected to decrease by approximately 1.5% annually, reaching 186.83 million kilograms by 2028. This reflects a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around -1.55% over five years. The consistent reduction signals critical shifts in trade dynamics or domestic production capacities.

Future trends to watch include:

Potential changes in environmental regulations affecting demand for PVC.
Innovations in alternative materials or recycling processes impacting import volumes.
Global trade policies and economic conditions influencing supply chain adjustments.
