In 2023, the import volume of Styrene-Acrylonitrile (SAN) copolymers to the US was placed at 16.3 million kilograms. The forecast for 2024 predicts a slight increase to 16.58 million kilograms, with steady growth projected through 2028, reaching 17.519 million kilograms. The year-on-year variation from 2024 to 2028 reflects a consistent growth, with the year 2025 expected to see a 1.5% increase, and similar small increments evident through the subsequent years. Over the next five-year period, a compounded average growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 1.4% is anticipated, indicating stable expansion in import volumes.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in global trade policies that might affect import costs or volumes, technological advancements in the manufacturing of SAN copolymers that could influence market demand, and evolving environmental regulations that may impact product usage and importation practices. These factors could significantly alter projected import volumes over the coming years.
