In 2023, the import of letterpress printing machinery, excluding flexographic, stood at 1.0744 million US dollars in France. The forecast for the period from 2024 to 2028 shows a decreasing trend, with values declining from 1.066 million US dollars in 2024 to 1.0371 million US dollars in 2028. The year-on-year variation demonstrates a consistent, albeit slight, decline at an average rate. The five-year CAGR is negative, reflecting an ongoing reduction in imports.
Future trends to watch include technological advancements in digital printing, which may substitute traditional letterpress machinery. Additionally, environmental regulations and the push for sustainability could drive changes in printing techniques and influence machinery imports.
