The import of sawdust, wood waste, and scrap to the US is projected to exhibit a declining trend from 2024 to 2028 with values reducing from 421.7 million kilograms in 2024 to 411.17 million kilograms in 2028. This indicates a successive year-on-year reduction in imports by approximately 0.65%.

Key observations:

Consistent decline in volume suggests a shift in demand or supply chain dynamics.
Future exploration should assess the impact of sustainability trends, recycling initiatives, and domestic production capabilities on imports.
Review technological advancements in wood processing industries which might influence import needs.
