In 2023, the re-import value of wirewound variable resistors for a power handling capacity exceeding 20 watts in Canada stood at $30.99 thousand. From 2024, the forecast shows a steady decline with values dropping each year: $29.46 thousand in 2024, $27.95 thousand in 2025, $26.47 thousand in 2026, $25.03 thousand in 2027, and $23.61 thousand in 2028. The year-on-year variation demonstrates a consistent downward trend, with an overall CAGR indicating a gradual decrease averaging around -5% per year.
Future trends to monitor include:
- Technological advancements in electronics that might affect component importation.
- Supply chain efficiencies or disruptions impacting re-import volumes.
- Shifts in global trade policies that could alter import dynamics.
- Emergence of alternative technologies that may reduce the demand for traditional wirewound resistors.
