The import of fibreboard of a density exceeding 0.8 g/cm3 mechanically worked or surface covered to China is anticipated to increase consistently from 2024 to 2028, projecting a steady growth trend. In 2023, import values were $167.33 million. From 2023 to 2024, a year-on-year growth of approximately 6.25% is expected, with subsequent annual growth rates maintaining similar levels, resulting in a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 5.23% over the forecasted period.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts of evolving trade policies and sustainability regulations on the import market, as well as shifts in domestic production capacities which could influence China's demand for these fibreboard imports.
