The forecast for Italy's imports of plates, sheets, film, foil, and strip of cellular polymers of vinyl chloride shows a steady increase from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 15.609 million kilograms in 2024 and growing to 16.448 million kilograms by 2028, the imports reflect a consistent upward trend.
As of 2023, the import volume stood at 15.390 million kilograms. The forecasted values demonstrate an average annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 1.32% over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from evolving trade policies, technological advancements in polymer manufacturing, and changes in domestic demand influenced by ecological regulations and sustainability trends, which could affect import quantities and dynamics in this sector. Economic shifts within the EU and fluctuations in global polymer supply chains also remain crucial factors to monitor.
