The import of rods and profile shapes of vulcanised non-cellular rubber to France is projected to show a consistent decline from 2024 through 2028, starting at 5.0711 million kilograms in 2024, down to 4.7848 million kilograms by 2028. This data suggests a weakening demand or potential changes in supply chain dynamics. Compared to 2023, a downward trend is evident with a year-on-year decrease averaging about 1.5%.

Future trends to watch for:

Global trade policies affecting rubber imports, particularly any changes related to European Union regulations.
Technological advancements in materials that could replace vulcanised rubber.
Shifts in automotive and industrial sectors which are heavy consumers of rubber.
