Based on the forecasted data, the re-import of cartons, boxes, and cases made from corrugated paper or paperboard to Canada is set to gradually increase from 525.98 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 535.39 thousand kilograms in 2028. This growth represents a steady year-on-year increase with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year period, indicating modest consistent growth.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential impacts of technological advancements in the packaging industry which may influence import needs.
Trade policy changes that could alter the dynamics of re-imports.
Environmental regulations that might affect sourcing practices and require adaptations in packaging materials used.
Trends in domestic production capabilities which might reduce the dependency on re-imports.
