Italy's forecast for total fibreboard imports indicates a gradual increase from 1.29 million cubic meters in 2024 to 1.4 million cubic meters by 2028. This reflects modest growth with a year-on-year variation suggesting a consistent 2.3% increase in volume annually. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period stands at approximately 2.1%.
Trends to watch for include potential impacts of global supply chain challenges, shifts in domestic production capabilities, and European Union regulations affecting fibreboard standards, which could influence Italy's import dependencies and volume trends over the coming years.
