The forecast for the import of unwrought zinc alloys to the UK shows a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, with values decreasing from 5.3733 million kilograms in 2024 to 4.6345 million kilograms in 2028. Compared to 2023, where actual imports were higher, the year-on-year decline is noticeable, indicating a contraction in demand or a strategic shift in resource sourcing. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year period underscores an average annual reduction in import volume.
Future trends to watch for include global zinc supply chain shifts, economic conditions affecting industrial demand, and potential policy changes regarding imports and domestic production, which could alter the import demand trajectory.
