In 2023, the import value of Butene (Butylene) to Japan stood at a higher level than the forecast for 2024-2028, indicating a downward trend in the forecasted years. With 2024 marking the start of a consistently declining pattern, year-on-year decreases from 2024 to 2028 reflect small decreases annually, suggesting a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) that signifies a slight regression over the five-year period.

Future Trends to Watch For:

Potential shifts in industrial demand for Butene in Japan that could alter import volumes.
Changes in global market conditions or regulations that might impact supply chains.
Advancements in alternative materials and technologies that might reduce dependency on Butene imports.
