In 2023, the re-import of adhesives based on rubber or plastic to China was approximately 3.65 million kilograms. The forecast data shows a steady decline in volume from 2024 through 2028, with annual decreases of around 4.65% on average. This decline suggests a potential shift in China's domestic production capabilities or changes in global trade dynamics affecting re-imports.
Future trends to watch for include:
- China's transition towards self-sufficiency in adhesive production.
- Global supply chain disruptions affecting availability and costs.
- Technological advancements leading to changes in adhesive compositions.
- Regulatory changes impacting import-export policies.
