The forecasted import volumes of uncoated felt paper and paperboard to Germany from 2024 to 2028 show a consistent decline. With a starting point of 7.4276 million kilograms in 2024, the volume decreases annually to 6.6017 million kilograms in 2028. This represents a year-on-year decline of approximately 3% as a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five years.

In 2023, the actual import volume was higher than 2024's forecast. Despite the generally negative trend in imports, factors in global trade dynamics, material innovation, or shifts in domestic production capacity could alter these forecasts.

Future trends to watch for include:

Global supply chain developments impacting availability and price of uncoated felt paper and paperboard.
Changes in environmental policies affecting production and import regulations.
Technological advancements influencing the usage and alternatives to traditional materials.
