The import of semi-chemical pulps of other fibrous material to the US is projected to decline steadily from 1.47 million USD in 2024 to 1.08 million USD in 2028. This indicates an overall yearly decrease, with a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting a significant downward trend. In 2023, the value stood slightly higher, suggesting the beginning of a sustained contraction, likely influenced by shifts in demand, market conditions, or competitive international sourcing.
Future trends to watch for:
- Market demand fluctuations due to environmental regulations and technological advancements.
- Potential influence of alternative materials as substitutes for pulps.
- Trade policy changes affecting import dynamics and costs.
