The forecast for the import of pigments for paints and dyes packaged for retail into China indicates a gradual decline in volume from 2024 to 2028, starting at 11.186 million kilograms in 2024 and declining to 10.852 million kilograms by 2028. Compared to the data from 2023, which recorded an actual volume of around 11.3 million kilograms, this represents a modest downward trend.
Year-on-year analysis over the forecast period shows slight decreases in volume, with the forecast for 2025 decreasing by approximately 0.77% from 2024, and continued similar declines through 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year forecast period reflects a slight negative trend.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in China’s economic landscape, procurement patterns, and innovations in alternative sustainable pigments which could influence import demand. Additionally, regulatory changes in environmental policies may alter import dynamics and impact long-term trends.
