The import of powders of iron or steel, other than alloy, to the UK is forecasted to decrease from 2024 to 2028. The volume in 2023 was recorded at approximately 2.9 million kilograms, and from 2024 to 2028, there is a noticeable downward trend in the import volume. The year-on-year reduction highlights a consistent decrease in demand or potential shifts in domestic production or alternative sourcing. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period reflects a declining trend, suggesting a structural adjustment in the market dynamics.
Future trends to be observed include:
