The forecast for re-import of veneer or ply sheet of tropical woods to Italy shows a decreasing trend from 2024 to 2028, with quantities expected to decline from 50.31 to 24.14 thousand kilograms. This decline represents a significant year-on-year reduction, averaging approximately 14% each year. In contrast, without specific 2023 data, precise comparisons remain indeterminate; however, trends indicate a consistent downturn. Over the five-year span, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) showcases a marked contraction in imports.
Future trends to watch include shifts in global demand for sustainable materials, potential regulatory changes in the EU impacting imports, and advancements in wood processing technologies that might influence the re-import volumes of tropical wood veneers.
