The forecast for re-import of cartons, boxes, and cases of corrugated paper or paperboard to China reveals a steady decline from 2024 through 2028. The re-import volume is anticipated to decrease by 2.14% from 2024 to 2025, and subsequently by approximately 2.15% each year through 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period is expected to be approximately -2.17%. As of 2023, the re-import volume stood at 4.353 million kilograms.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from economic policies affecting trade and recycling mandates in China, as well as global shifts toward sustainable packaging and raw material sourcing that might alter import dynamics.
