The forecast for the re-import of instruments and appliances used in dentistry to Italy indicates a consistent year-on-year decline from 2024 to 2028. Beginning in 2024, the import quantity is projected to be 59.5 kilograms, decreasing by 17.6% in 2025, then by 20.8% in 2026. The downward trend continues with a 25.7% decline in 2027, and finally, a significant drop of 33.9% in 2028. This results in a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of negative -27.9% from 2024 to 2028.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in global dental manufacturing locations, changes in trade agreements, and competitive advancements in local Italian dental instrument production, which could further impact re-import volumes positively or negatively. Monitoring regulatory changes in Italy and fluctuations in domestic demand will also be crucial.
