The re-import of polycarbonates to China in 2023 stood at approximately 100.85 million kilograms. Forecasted figures show a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028, with 2024 beginning at 99.97 million kilograms, decreasing to 94.955 million kilograms by 2028. Year-on-year percentage decreases are modest, indicating a slight downward trend. Over five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflects a declining trajectory in the volume of re-imported polycarbonates.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Impact of China's domestic production advancements on re-import needs.
- Shifts in global polycarbonate demand affecting import volumes.
- Trade policies and economic conditions influencing cross-border materials flow.
