The forecast for French imports of paper and cardboard waste from the EU28 indicates a steady decline from €109.44 million in 2024 to €108.57 million by 2028, as postulated in the data. Though specific year-on-year variations aren't provided, the small decrement suggests a stable albeit slightly decreasing trend. Comparing this with the estimated value in 2023, the projection implies a nominal annual decline. Over these five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is slightly negative, underscoring a persistently diminishing import figure.
Future trends worth monitoring include shifts in EU regulations regarding waste exports, changes in France’s recycling infrastructure, and potential disruptors in waste management technologies. These could significantly impact the intra-EU waste trade dynamics and France's import volume or value.
