The import of paper and paperboard coated with inorganic substances to France is forecasted to decline from 2024 to 2028, with values decreasing from $1.298 billion in 2024 to $1.1515 billion in 2028. This represents an average annual decrease of approximately 2.8% over the forecast period. Given this context, a notable trend from the last two years shows a consistent reduction in import values, likely due to shifts in domestic production, changing demand, or competitive dynamics in the international market.

Future trends to watch include:

Trade policies and environmental regulations influencing import levels and costs.
Advancements in recycling technology increasing the availability of domestic alternatives.
Consumer demand for sustainable and eco-friendly packaging solutions shaping import needs.
