The forecast for the UK's import of uncoated filter paper and paperboard in rolls or sheets shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 1.9275 million kilograms in 2024, the volume decreases steadily to 1.2013 million kilograms by 2028. Assuming the volume was relatively stable prior, the year-on-year decline reflects significant decreases: from 2024 to 2025, a 9.71% drop; 2025 to 2026, 10.53%; 2026 to 2027, 11.53%; and 2027 to 2028, 12.78%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) highlights an annual reduction of over 12.25% over the period.
Future trends to watch for include increased adoption of digital alternatives reducing paperboard demand, shifts in environmental regulations prompting changes in import volume, and potential economic factors affecting trade relations and costs, further impacting import trends.
