Forecast: Import of Flat Rolled Silicon-Electrical Steel of a Width Less Than 600 mm to Germany

In 2023, the import value of flat rolled silicon-electrical steel of a width less than 600 mm to Germany stood at an estimated baseline figure, preceding the forecasted values beginning from 2024. Over the forecast period from 2024 to 2028, a steady increase in import value is anticipated, with incremental year-on-year percentages not specified in the initial dataset but resulting in a consistent upward trend. This pattern suggests a modest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) across the five-year span, reflecting a stable increase in demand and/or pricing for this specialized steel category.

Future trends to watch for include potential impacts from technological advancements in materials science that could alter demand, shifts in global trade policies affecting import costs, and evolving needs in Germany’s automotive and energy sectors, both major consumers of silicon-electrical steel. Attention to these demand drivers will be essential in influencing the trajectory of future import values.
