The forecast for re-imports of plywood, veneered panels, and similar laminated wood to Canada shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. Starting at $1.8682 million in 2024, the value is expected to decrease annually, reaching $1.5267 million by 2028. This represents a steady year-on-year decrease in the re-import values, indicating a shrinking demand or increased local production capabilities over these years.

Future trends to watch:

Emerging sustainability practices may influence import volumes as Canada increases domestic production.
Exchange rate fluctuations could impact future import costs and volumes, altering forecasts.
Technological advances in wood processing and alternative materials could affect demand for re-imported wood products.
