The forecast for the import of veneer sheets and sheets for plywood of thickness not exceeding 6 mm to Brazil shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, starting at $5.635 million in 2024 and projected to decline to $4.634 million by 2028. This reflects a consistent year-on-year decrease, indicating a potential contraction in demand or a shift towards local production. In 2023, the actual import value was higher, implying a notable downward adjustment in 2024 and beyond.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential shifts in global supply chain dynamics that could affect import costs and availability.
- Changes in Brazilian domestic policies that might encourage local production or affect import regulations.
- The impact of economic conditions on construction and manufacturing sectors which drive demand for veneer and plywood.
