In 2023, the import of uncoated kraftliner in rolls or sheets to the UK stood at 119. This forecast presents a slight but steady decline in the volume of imports from 2024 to 2028, decreasing from 118.04 million kilograms in 2024 to 114.37 million kilograms by 2028.
Observed year-on-year variations depict a gradual reduction, with a consistent drop each year, reflecting a subtle downward trend. Over the five-year forecast period from 2024 to 2028, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) indicates a modest average annual decline.
Future trends to watch include potential supply chain disruptions, sustainability trends shifting packaging preferences, and economic factors influencing import needs and costs. Changes in environmental regulations may also impact packaging materials, possibly affecting kraftliner imports.
