In 2023, the re-import of polyethylene having a specific gravity of less than 0.94 to France stood at approximately 15.7 million kilograms. From 2024 onwards, the forecast indicates a steady increase in volume, with projected values reaching 18.306 million kilograms by 2028. This represents an average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period.
The year-on-year growth rates highlight gradual increases, with annual expansions ranging consistently between approximately 3% to 3.5% over the forecast period.
Future trends to watch for include fluctuations in global polyethylene prices, changes in international trade policies, and advances in recycling technologies that may affect import dynamics. Additionally, France's domestic demand for sustainable materials might influence future import patterns.
