In 2023, Japan imported 1,2-Dichloroethane valued at approximately 68 million USD. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a gradual decrease, dropping to around 61.962 million USD by 2028. This represents a steady decline in imports with a noticeable negative trend. The year-on-year variation reflects a consistent decrease, indicating a shrinking demand or alternative sourcing for this chemical. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the forecasted period highlights an average annual decline, suggesting a persistent downturn.
Future trends to watch for include technological advancements in chemical manufacturing that might reduce reliance on imports, potential changes in environmental regulations impacting demand, and the development of alternative materials reducing the need for 1,2-Dichloroethane.
