The import of film with silver halide emulsion of a width not exceeding 105 mm to China shows a steady incremental trend from 2024 to 2028. From 2024 onwards, the forecasted figures indicate a consistent annual growth rate of 0.26%. As of 2023, the value stood at 18.88 thousand kilograms. The year-on-year growth sustains a narrow range around 0.26%, reflecting stable demand. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year period is also calculated at approximately 0.26%, confirming the trend of moderate but consistent growth.

Future trends to watch for:

Innovation in digital imaging technologies, potentially reducing reliance on traditional film.
Fluctuations in global silver prices affecting production costs.
Environmental regulations that could impact material supply and import volumes.
