The forecast for France's imports of composite paper and paperboard indicates a slight, consistent decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 38.703 million kilograms in 2024, imports reduce to 37.563 million kilograms by 2028. This translates to a steady annual percentage decrease, with the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting an average annual decline across this five-year span. As of 2023, actual import figures stood slightly higher, marking the beginning of this downward trend.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts from increasing digitalization reducing demand for paper products, sustainability initiatives, or economic shifts that might alter import needs. Additionally, innovations in composite materials could affect market dynamics.
