In 2023, Italy imported waste and scrap of paper and paperboard valued at 112.50 million USD. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 demonstrates a steady decline, with minor annual decreases each year. In 2024, imports are projected to be 112.11 million USD, decreasing year-over-year by approximately 0.21%. This decline continues through 2028, culminating in an import value of 111.18 million USD. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years reflects a subtle downtrend in import value.
Future trends to observe include fluctuations in Italy’s domestic paper recycling industry, which could affect import needs. Additionally, international trade dynamics and regulatory changes concerning waste management may further influence these figures.
