In 2023, Germany imported approximately 10.2 million kilograms of nickel alloy wire. Forecasts indicate a steady rise in imports, reaching about 11.904 million kilograms by 2028. This represents consistent year-on-year growth: 3.3% from 2024 to 2025, 3.1% from 2025 to 2026, and 3% from 2026 to 2027, leading to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 2.7% for the five-year period from 2024 to 2028.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from advancements in electric vehicles and renewable energy sectors, which could drive demand for nickel alloys, along with fluctuations in global trade policies and nickel prices that could affect import volumes.
