The import volume of creped, crinkled, embossed, and perforated paper in rolls wider than 36 cm to Germany is projected to slightly decline from 8.4393 million kilograms in 2024 to 7.9696 million kilograms by 2028. This gradual decrease reflects a year-on-year average decline of about 1.4% and reflects a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -1.2% over the five-year period starting from 2024. In comparison, actual import figures for 2023 are not available, but the trend suggests a softening demand in the forecasted period.
Future trends to watch:
- Potential shifts towards sustainable packaging materials could impact paper imports.
- Technological advancements may alter production efficiencies or consumer preferences, affecting demand.
- Economic conditions and trade policies will remain critical to import dynamics.
