The re-import of lead unwrought not containing mostly antimony to France is projected to decline steadily from 1.1905 million kilograms in 2024 to 0.71406 million kilograms in 2028. The year-on-year variation highlights a consistent decrease over the years: a decrease of approximately 10.29% from 2024 to 2025, approximately 11.27% from 2025 to 2026, approximately 12.44% from 2026 to 2027, and approximately 13.92% from 2027 to 2028. The compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period indicates an average decline of about 12.64% per year, suggesting a persistent shrinkage in this segment.

Future trends to watch for:

Technological advancements impacting lead recycling processes.
Regulatory changes concerning environmental sustainability and waste management in the European Union.
Fluctuations in global lead demand and supply chains affecting France's re-import levels.
