The import volume of ash or residues containing mainly zinc to Germany is projected to increase from 38.117 million kilograms in 2024 to 41.137 million kilograms by 2028. Between 2024 and 2025, the volume grows by 2.04%, and from 2025 to 2026, by 1.96%. Year-on-year, the growth rate consistently hovers around 1.9% to 2.0%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) between 2024 and 2028 is approximately 1.92%, suggesting steady demand for this material, perhaps driven by its use in industrial applications.
Future trends to watch include shifts in the global supply chain for materials containing zinc, changes in environmental regulations impacting the processing of zinc residues, and technological advancements that may influence demand or processing efficiency. Monitoring these factors can provide insights into potential fluctuations in import volumes beyond the current forecasts.
