The import of glues based on starches, dextrins, or modified starches to France is projected to decrease significantly from 2024 through 2028. As of 2023, the volume stood at a higher level, marking a consistent decline in the subsequent years. The year-on-year analysis highlights this downward trajectory, with a noticeable decline each year. The compound annual growth rate over the five-year forecast period suggests a persistent downward trend.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential shifts in industrial demand driving the decrease in imports.
- Adoption of alternative adhesives, which might affect the demand for starch-based glues.
- Changes in global starch supply chains or pricing impacting import volumes.
