In 2023, Italy imported 13.363 million kilograms of kraft paperboard coated with other inorganic substances. From 2024 to 2028, forecasts suggest a yearly decline, with a total drop to 11.309 million kilograms in 2028.
The year-on-year decline averages approximately 2-3% during this period. Key drivers for this downward trend might include domestic production improvements, shifts in packaging material preferences, or regulatory changes promoting sustainability.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential policy shifts promoting eco-friendly alternatives.
- Technological advancements in packaging materials.
- Market demand fluctuations within the European Union.
