From 2024 to 2028, forecasts show a slight and consistent downward trend in import volumes, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) reflecting a subtle decrease. The year-on-year percentage variations accentuate declining imports as follows: 2024 sees a decrease, albeit minimal, escalating to a more prominent decline towards 2028, indicating diminishing demand or strategic sourcing shifts.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential shifts towards alternative materials or sources that could further impact imports.
