The production forecast for tropical non-coniferous plywood in France projects a declining trend from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 92.27 thousand cubic meters in 2024, it is expected to decrease steadily each year, reaching 66.56 thousand cubic meters by 2028. This indicates a year-on-year reduction, with substantial declines noted particularly towards the end of the period. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflects a consistent negative trend over these forecast years. The year 2023 recorded higher volumes, which marks the beginning of this declining trajectory.
Future trends to watch for include shifts in demand due to economic factors, potential policy changes affecting timber imports, and the push towards sustainable materials impacting production levels. Monitoring these factors will be crucial for forecasting beyond 2028.
