In 2023, the production of polystyrene in primary forms in France stood at 413.00 million kilograms. From 2024 onwards, a decreasing trend is forecasted, with polystyrene production expected to drop steadily each year from 411.46 million kilograms in 2024 to 405.05 million kilograms in 2028. This indicates a continuous decline in production volume over the five-year forecast period.
The year-on-year percentage variation suggests a slight but consistent annual decrease, with the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting an average decline per year.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer demand, regulatory changes impacting polystyrene use due to environmental concerns, and technological advancements in alternative materials that may influence production volumes and market dynamics.
