The import of veneer or ply sheet of coniferous wood into France is on a declining trajectory from 2024 to 2028. The data indicates a steady decrease in volume, starting from 8.2317 million kilograms in 2024 to 5.6503 million kilograms in 2028. This denotes a substantial drop in import volumes over the five-year forecast period, with a consistent downward trend. Given the absence of 2023 data in this forecast, we need to assume a starting point to apply annual variations. Expect a notable year-on-year decrease through this period, illustrating a compounding reduction. The compound annual growth rate would highlight this as a critical downward trend.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential changes in domestic production capabilities in France influencing imports.
Fluctuations in the global supply chain impacting availability and prices of softwood veneers.
Environmental policies and regulations affecting import volumes.
Adaptations in construction and furniture industries responding to sustainable material preferences.
