In 2023, the import of diols (except ethylene and propylene glycol) to France stood at 24.380 million kilograms. Looking ahead, forecasts project steady growth from 2024, with imports increasing from 24.951 million kilograms to 27.83 million kilograms by 2028. Year-on-year growth is approximately 3% each year, resulting in a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 2.9% over the five-year forecast period. This suggests a stable upward trend in import volumes.
Future trends to watch include potential fluctuations due to changing industrial demands, policy adjustments in France, or shifts in global supplier markets. Innovations in diol applications could further impact import volumes.
