The import of multilayer ceramic fixed electrical capacitors to the UK in 2023 was 7.25 million kilograms. Based on the forecasted data from 2024 to 2028, a steady year-on-year increase is anticipated, rising from 7.5261 million kilograms in 2024 to 8.6671 million kilograms in 2028. The year-on-year growth rates are consistent, reflecting a continued demand mediated by advancements in consumer electronics and electrification trends. The projected compound annual growth rate over these five years is approximately 3.5%, suggesting robust and sustained demand growth for these components.
Future trends to watch for include technological advancements in capacitor efficiency, the impact of trade agreements or tariffs affecting import volumes, and an increasing emphasis on sustainable and eco-friendly manufacturing practices. Additionally, shifts in electronic manufacturing locations could alter import patterns, as well as potential disruptions from geopolitical factors.
