In 2023, the import volume of finishing agents and dye carriers used in the paper or similar industries to China was considerably lower than in the forecasted future years. From 2024 to 2028, there's a steady upward trend in imports, starting from 45.712 million kilograms to 47.451 million kilograms by 2028. This indicates a consistent year-on-year growth, with each year showing a slight increase compared to the previous one. This culminates in a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) that depicts a minor but steady expansion in the industry.
Future trends to watch include potential advancements in local production capacities which could impact import volumes. Additionally, shifts in environmental regulations and technological innovations could either drive demand for more sustainable products or introduce new substitutes, further influencing the import dynamics.
